Due to stagnancy in the haze of emotions that linger without metaphysical digestion. Due to ongoing certainty in mitigating short term risk.
Every human succumbs to one or the other, both, through their lifespan.
Cause and effect, and time. To see beyond the immediate and know what is best.
Again knowledge and soul know.
So.
When we see historic changes to landscapes for what was deemed an immediate need, for peace and prosperity beyond what humans do need.
Yet for collaboration and improvement of the mores of our collective existence.
While still understanding the cause and effect on natures systems.
Alas, the complexities of systems pertaining to order and corruption of what one with money may see as an immediate remedy.
Exists as an ever repeating dynamic we all face, as improving building codes, hazard reduction practice and retrofitting infrastructure is all we can do in the face of many more environmental hazards.
Including how humans react to risk of nature while respecting what it can do.
Yet fantasy can also be seen as irrationality, a dream of what we still can do if thinking a way beyond the norms of me and you.
