the author is not describing the world. they are describing their experience of it. classic mistake, and quite an anxious version of it.

it's not wrong, but it is tangled in the waves...

people who choose to live in deep in ignorance do so well. many evil people sleep sweetly because they simply do not care.

those that care swim to the surface to escape the pressure, but there they find waves, smashing them against the cliffs.

the trick is to break free from the surface. clearly the author has the will, but not yet the tools. to help, i would suggest the following:

- learn the difference between complexity and complicatedness - learn about systems thinking - keep developing your emotional smarts, and actively use this capacity - read Krishnamurti
