You can feel the seeds of violence every day. New Yorkers have been raving about stress for years. It gives them substance. The trouble is not that we live in stressful times, but that everybody tolerates the consequences. Misery does love company.
People embrace stress.
They are counting on it. One just hopes they outlive the 20 years so they can relax. They do not seem to know that life is in session now. They do not know that each of us is the ceo of our own life. Or rather, as ceo, they have decided work now, live later.
