Each of us lives in a bubble,
presuming the world to be as we expect / believe it to be.

When we encounter a spilling mistake,
something is not as we expected, predicted, believed or wished.
Does the bubble bounce, stretch, burst, or what?

Our world view is scratched, albeit in a very minor way,
but that is magnified by the weight of the rest of the bubble.
Since that is our own perception, it might be ALL of our current perception,
ie all of me, everything that I am. Suddenly brought into contradiction.

That is a narcissistic injury, if its a problem, it may be a problem.
