We all have our own way of communicating with the world around us. A way to understand and influence that which we preceive. This is our external interface with the world. In a similar fashion the world interfaces with us and chooses (by whatever means that it does) how it does so independant of our desires. That is why the universe is occationally subtle and more often painfully forceful.
Just a little more teaser. Wednesday things should become more clear.
