You are right and of course, this is obvious. It is so easy to obsess about
what one hears, reads, sees, but especially what is not seen or heard. The
sense of approaching events becomes deafening at these times, and the posture
of frozen indecision feels more like being caught in the headlights of the
next unknown catastrophe. Sorry for the metaphoric stew--best I can do for
coherence, as visuals are my strong suit...
I know that most of the people who are clued into these things are pinching
away at their own nearest corners day by day, so that even all their
collective efforts at positive resolution reaching a kind of critical mass
would be an almost imperceptible shift of consensus reality. And who knows if
even a tiny shift can have a huge effect on the whole? Who knows anything for
sure--even personal perception is only an imperfect guideline--a delicate and
alluring construct. How virtual is reality anyway?
