The Light is to be found at the end of the tunnel. Until then you have to be concentrated and make no mistakes. If you do though, there’s no need to worry because you can start it all over again and again until you have made it, richer in insight, experience and, fnally, the will to see. If this drama were placed in the Wild West, just imagine that Acuity, the good guy, wore a white hat and Blur, the bad guy, wore a black one. Like in Once upon a time in the West, there are the good guy’s trials and errors but there is no doubt who will eventually win.
To tell the truth, there are things bad guys do well too. You will never see any cowboy, either good or bad, wearing glasses, right? Among such dopamine-biased personalities myopia can never ever exist, as it normally does not exist among the heroes of the Wild West or any other realm where Darwinian survival of the fttest represents the law. If you remember the mentioned movie leitmotifs, you must have remembered the hypnotic open-focus look of Henry Fonda, the one originating in the exploration, reasoning, planning, frequent cognitive switches and internal rehearsals, anticipation, goal-orientation and pursuit. Henry’s wide-open blue eyes penetrating through the illusion of the immediate material world give a good example of how the eyes, if not their master, should behave.
