Reality never forgets.
We can delude outselves, ignoring the harsh feedback of the world in hopes of getting off lightly.
But there is no escape.
Eventually, the world will inflict more pain than we can ignore. And the longer we've waited, the more painful this reckoning will be (assuming we survive it at all).
We're stuck. There is no safe option.
How to move forward, in light of this tragedy?
I'm no expert, but I have a theory.
