Humans are machines that are wired to be motivated by change. It doesn't have to be good, it doesn't have to be beautiful or enchanted, it just has to _change_ and be _changeable_ by the person. When people feel down, it's not usually because they can't sense enchantment, it's because they're stuck on something they can't currently change. It's not a "skill," it's a devastating statement on the nature of the world we live in and how little power supposedly free people actually have in the face of a crushing government technocratic corporate welfare state.
