Today's society raises us with the idea that we are all somehow special or unique.

And when we come in contact with the idea that this unicity we think we all were gifted with can allow us to shape the world as we want it, we enter a dangerous realm.

Hic sunt leones, as the Latins used to say.

Ancient Greeks have warned us against the pride in considering ourselves at the same level as Gods (ὕβρις), a behavior that was heavily punished by unimaginable consequences in ancient Greece.

The border between acting with agency and making fools of ourselves is very thin once we believe in our power to craft our destiny regardless of external constraints.

This mindset of "defying causality" is tempting, especially after years of online media has shown us the story of those successful while hiding those who perished in the mission in the closet.

Be careful then, don't make a fool of yourself, or you might be another skeleton to hide.
