“I think part of preparedness is always being quite cognizant of just how tenuous our lives can be. We know that there is a future where we’re huddled around a campfire of burning 2×4s where the tornado took the house, where we look in the fridge and theres nothing but a box of baking soda and ketchup, where we spend hours a day looking for a job as we watch our bank accounts dwindle, where we feel unsafe, insecure, and hopeless. That’s why we prepare…to mitigate those events, to reduce our fragility, to increase our resilience. And when you’re aware of what the bad side of life could look like, it tends to make you more aware and grateful for the good side that you’re experiencing.” – Commander Zero, from his Notes From The Bunker blog
