Dear players,
Something I have been pondering for a long time is how to point out to people that the things they say make no sense. We live in a modern rational society were up is up and down is down, left is left, right is right right? Black is black, white is white and mystery's are reserved for fiction novels. But beneath the surface something is forever bursting through, something that has no place in a modern rational society.
What reminded me of this was a lone in a film I was watching, the evil queen is lying on a bed with her eyes covered and to her servants she sais '' I can feel you smiling'' Can you feel someone smiling? which of the five senses is that? what else might one feel? and how does any of this fit with the western world view? How much of me, I wonder now, is a product of my social conditioning? and what can I do to reveal my social conditioning for what is really is?
Pondering regards,
Lea.
