Dark Process
I love to clean my floors and by clean my floors I mean pick up everything and Ralph Macchio-it; really get in there, hands and knees, scrubbing in small circles, and then drying the floor by walking around on towels. It's basic and delightful and, since, at the same time, I clean and replenish the water in my fish tank, the fish love it too.
I did this yesterday and experienced something similar to the apple falling on Newton's head. A notion, likely cued up by recent explorations into spacetime and its possible connection to the strange duplicity I'm noticing here in 2020 - things seem to be arriving in pairs, happened upon me.
After watching an episode of NOVA, I've been thinking about the "Holographic Principle" and how the informational content of a black hole is stored in two dimensions. I'm wondering if a hole can actually be a wrinkle that might be plastered over by space, creating a pocket. Then, by somehow opening a lid (I imagine looking like a drainpipe in Super Mario) you can enter the wrinkle and be on a dark loop who's magnitude or gravity is determined by how much information exists in the lid. It's pretty far out and by reading this you've entered a bit of a drainpipe haha. Anyway, here is a diagram:
It was with science like this in my head that, as I was cleaning the floor, arrived at the idea of a Dark Process. To the casual observer, like my daughter for example, the house is going from dirty to clean, so when I began to make a mess by throwing dead ficus leaves on the floor, the action might appear counter-productive and even concern-producing. However, coming through with a broom is the next step that the enlightened actor knows about and the casual observer doesn't.

I think my point is that on some level we're all casual observers, thus we should keep the faith, trust the process, and beware of judgement for we might have simply missed the hole to the whole.
