This is the situation we are all in

From Maria Popova's Brain Pickings web site

Everything you wish for is the tiniest island, floating in Everything you hope might happen overlapping reluctantly Everything you suspect might happen  praying not to touch the dreaded Everything you fear might happen.  Now All the things that happen are nothing but a subset of All the things you can't do a thing about. 


Complicated to explain, easy to visualize. We must know how to sift all the layers that are happening simultaneously and must intuit kabbalistically the meanings.
