Exactly! In large part, a purposeful effort to make good people feel overwhelmed, which is a step in the direction of feeling hopeless and helpless.

I remember a Clan Mother saying when things are moving too fast, to go into yourself to slow down and find firm ground. This can be an individual or group effort, with the majority of people opting for the small group. It is no coincidence that this concept is found in the older chapters of that Good Book.

It is there where we find hope, even in this terrible situation we find ourselves in.
