Nice illustration of stress. Hope you're feeling better since this was taken, though.

Yes, I understood that part too (I've been in NJ for about 16 years, and up and down the East Coast from my early 20s until now). Every time I used to drive in Manhattan I would begin speaking in tongues, largely due to the stress and the over-stimulation. This image captures a sense of that for me very well indeed.

The City, such a feast for the eyes. I suppose one could get well smothered by this if taken in large doses.

To much tension and coldness,the race for 'me and mine' in full swing.
Not a healthy environment to exist in , as I get a little older, the rat race
no longer the appeal or the promise it once had ... oh well ..

Never ends. NOw it's looking like it's more of a lemming race, and there is no winners. Or is it, first one over the cliff wins?

First one over the the cliff, but i have it on good authority that it's the Ones who watch
and mind their Ps & Qs who win .... . All this bullshit is caused by poor perception of
the reality . Like cattle to the slaughter .

Yes. Perception of the reality. Seems many are too far removed from the origen of all this stuff. Food, homes, autos, oil, electricity, the game system, etc. But that's OK. Need a new PS3, extend the ol' credit line. Want to refurnish, need a hot tub, no problem, cash in your equity. MOOOOOO, MOOOOOOO! Need to go 0-80 in 2.5 seconds, just sign on the dotted line. MOOOOOO, MOOOOOOO!
Gas prices too high? Drill here, Drill now, AMerica first! MOOOOOO, MOOOOOOO!
Okay, hope that all was'nt too far off the hook.

You're getting the gist of it .
I think I'm trying to express the Importance of community over
greedy isolation. The uber rich got themselves into this ,they
can get themselves out.
