These unprecedented times are almost impossible to interpret and everyone deals with that sinking unknowing in different ways; some run in circles, some lash out, some make up stuff, some deny, some just stand with their mouths hanging open. But finally when there's something to focus on, I think most of us dig in and fight.

It's a credit to your character that your able to change your point of view and admit it. That's a hell of a lot more than most people can do. Has the sky has fallen? I think it has, or at least the ground under our feet has exploded.
