I find myself a Stranger in a Strange Land. A paradise. An Archipelago. Isolated from the world, surrounded by the South Pacific. On the opposite side of the globe from my home.
Like the theory of Quantum Entanglement – I am spinning in accordance to events across the planet. I’m not alone to be sure. This spinning has struck all.
Every decision made in the States, ripples around the globe. We are all entangled.
I worry the decisions are short sighted, and that hiding from Corona will not solve the problem, just prolong the ripples. Only history will judge these decisions.
Sadly, I feel that fear is making the decisions. Media drives the fear, the leaders oblige. Who could stand up to that fear? Decisions of today, not of tomorrow. The fall-out of the entanglement will be carried by the poor, as it always is.
Fall-out from evil that will rise up, to take advantage of the weak. Evil that will use the lockdowns as an opportunity to murder and dictated and control. The world will put itself together – but it will have paid a great price for the choices. Police states will be justified.
A parade of dozens of police cars, motorcycles and trucks escort 10 buses below my balcony – here along my Archipelago paradise waterfront. Blinking blue lights reflect against the palm trees and gentle waves. Prison buses to an isolated quarantine hotel. Arriving on two planes, 500 people. Holy Shit!!! This is beyond surreal. Beauty and the Beast.
Is this happening all over the world? Is hiding the solution?
I know I’m in the minority, but I don’t believe hiding is the solution. Fear is never the solution.
Soon people will need to wear black arm bands. The ones that have tested positive and now test negative. All the others must be feared. Herded to detention centers. Ahh!! The entanglement.
The entanglement of such a remote place as New Caledonia was at-first a surprise to me. I had hoped this remote Archipelago would be the perfect place to ride out the Corona Chaos. Immune from entanglement. But no, even here the spinning isn’t possible to slow.
First two different outbound flights where canceled. Then all flights canceled. Then two hotels evicted me. Now; even though there are a few flights out of this Archipelago paradise – I have been told that I’m not permitted to leave the island. Ahh!! I’m being schooled in the lessons of freedom, of fear, of entanglement.
I believe 99% of Life is a balance of Free Will, Fate(environment) and Genetics. But under the new rules of Archipelago entanglement – only Fate rules the moment. Free Will and Genetics have no role here. I dream of the balance and of finding the secret of the other 1%.
Hold on. Hold yourself together. Its all anyone can do now. We’re all entangled.
The Law of Unintended Consequences is in full force. Pray for the best.
A Butterfly in the Amazon has flapped its wings, and the world took note.
