[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 678810, member: 17461"] So, like always, I am trying to ferret out the why. Control what, exactly. What would that feel like, if life were a series of orchestrated, predetermined outcomes. I can understand: grandiosity hit. At the heart of it, that is what a serial killer is all about, too. So, we know these twists exist. So I wonder if it is like this: Just as the painter, though she may never become an artist, experiences reality differently than the musician, so there are people whose experience of being alive is as different from our experiences of being alive as the painters is from the musicians is from the dancer's. That is why we don't understand our families of origin. (Especially the sicker ones.) It is a literal truth that we do not see what they see. I wonder what they dream. Cedar [/QUOTE]
