Domineering people CANNOT agree (must NOT?) agree with each other just who does (should?) play the domineering role and who does (should?) play the submissive role. They agree that this question is (should?) be tacit, implicit; and be the enduring focus of their enduring conflict and violence. Domineering people agree (tacitly?) that the dishonest rules of their collusive games of mutual self deception are (must be?) tacit; never clarified, never made explicit; always the tacit focus of the question: who is (should be?) in charge and/or control? It is always tacitly agreed that they do not (and should not) agree on who is (should be?) in charge and/or control. If they did overtly agree on that issue, they would have nothing to serve as the focus for their meaningful and enduring coercion and violent fights and contentious wars of wills. Lovers overtly agree that they are not (should not!) be preoccupied with issues of control and/or of domination. Lovers are not preoccupied with whether or not their agreements are tacit or overt; for they are NOT (and agree that they should NOT be) playing any collusive games of mutual self deception; so they are NOT (and agree that they should NOT be) in tension/contention over such matters which do NOT truly matter at all. Lovers are comfortable accepting into their lives the realities & virtues of: mutually-complementary- paradoxical-truths, essential-mysteries, Love, ambiguities, uncertainties, tentative-truths, continuing-hypotheses, vulnerabilities, diverse-integrities, Love's-Sanctuaries, different-people-with-their-differences, unresolved-differences, integration, and indifference towards issues of control and settling who is in Control as The Dominant One. Lovers are clue less. about such issues; just don't care. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
