                We and others

         are often often inclined to

         feel, think and/or believe

          that we, they, and/or God

      are, can be, may be, or should be

                in control of

     the times, places, circumstances and

       the meaning and/or satisfaction

             that we and/or they

        can, may, and/or should enjoy

                 because of

attitudes, beliefs, convictions, decisions and/or actions.

     We  find it difficult to come to terms with the  fact
that  we  are often mislead and are not being honest about
the  reality  of  our  limited  lives;    or   about   the
occasions   of   the  most  meaningful  affirmations   and
experiences  which we have the privilege of  enjoying  and
remembering.    Such occasions are   not  under    control
to   serve   as  means  to   the  fulfillment   of  plans,
intentions,   desires,   systems  or technologies.    Such
occasions  are  not  part   of a  system  of  rewards  and
punishments  designed to assure conformity to a good  plan
designed to assure proper conformal behavior.

     So  long  as we are mislead and dishonest about  such
matters  it  is hard to learn from our tragic  mistakes
and  to be wise in dealing with the dilemmas and  problems
which  confront  us  in  our  daily  lives.    We   cannot
articulate  the  meaningful  conclusions  which  we  might
wisely  draw  from our blunders,   errors,   mistakes  and
willful foolishness.
                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
