Our choices often seem few and inadequate. In these times it is, as you say, hard to exercise control. The lower mind seems to have much more power than the higher. And what of the future? Then I remember the subtle world which lays hidden behind our more familiar one. Here is a more viable field of operation if we could only see it clearly. Of course after we stop being emotional we can once again see the path ahead clearly. Much easier it is to be theoretical rather than practical.
