This is powerful, Eunice — thank you for sharing these truths. I was moving through something similar (‘We Live in a Constructed Reality'), and I can't even remember what I was thinking about when I wrote it—but I felt it again as I read your piece. Everything is for sale, and when we're given the illusion of choice, it's really just curated options so we believe we have choice… I keep coming back to "what do I do with this awareness?" Keep sharing!!! This is great, great stuff!!

“Curated options so be believe we have a choice.” Oof. That lands hard.

This nugget says it all: "And survival often comes at the cost of autonomy." This should be an op-ed in a major news outlet, Eunice. You said it so well.

Yes!!! And when everything is for sale, is anything sacred anymore?
