"Nearly 200 years ago William Wordsworth wrote that “the world is too much with us.” What on earth would he say about the encroachments pressing in on your souls and sensibilities today?

My thoughts:

We must have sense and sensibility-they balance each other out-yet the bounce off each other.  Sense is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and quiet. Sensibility is feeling, and reactions in your heart.
