Seems a word play but hints at deeper issues. A relationship not in synch, or maybe even a Schroeder’s Cat quantum weirdness. The old Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, if you observe something it is changed. The German at the end saying it’s all good, all for the best?
CW, I was playing and hinting at both Schroeder and Heisenberg, and it is about the uncertainty that plagues most people and relationships, even though there is nothing to be concerned about and despite the reassurance that “all is good”. I will extend and edit this to contrast this with the certainty that pervades and underpins the natural world.
