I finally visited StefanKrempl’s blog again, after an absence of probably two months or more. Reading the lastest news (English quotes, German commentary) reminded me of how communication continues to defy the mind. When I look at my own immediate surrounds, I feel awesome. When I learn about the world that I cannot see with my own eyes by reading the newspapers and blogs, the abyss of Realpolitik saddens me beyond words. The discrepancy between blessed joy in the company of loved ones, the satisfaction of creating and tinkering with your own hands, the despair when reading about all the injustice being perpetuated, and the revulsion at the capabilities of man – it just seems so much... Too much to really understand, to be *one* with it.
The world is too big to “grok” (Wikipedia:Grok). Nothing new there, I guess.
I guess it shows that I spent too much time reading the news today.
