For my part those vignettes reminded me of one of my favourite quotes from a psychology professor in Germany: “We act as though everything were at stake, as though we had a definite meaning to express in our activities. Everyday life treats the every-day; this is why everyday actions are so dramatic… For this reason, the course of day-to-day life always displays more rage, more anxiety, or happiness than can be explained by the isolated observation of individual situations and activities.” – Wilhelm Salber There’s real power in the study of everyday life.
