Only the child in us can see and tell that the Emperor is without clothes.
Thanks Marcela, for first hand and first class reporting. Of course, all those there, at that time, may not have experienced the same anxiety in quality and quantity. Also many others including Asians may have stood the ground, till it became all clear. I have often observed that in such short term emergencies, many Asians don’t scramble, perhaps because they are used to such things. one is astounded at the sheer panic some people displayed, in this advanced digital age.
Imagination runs higher and faster than actual perception due to the already disturbed Consciousness, which pushes the body helter skelter, during panic situations. Only the child in us can see that the Emperor is without clothes and also tell others, who hesitated to say so.
