|The easiest way for any human to be noticed, (in the non-brutish, civilized sense), is for him to criticize something. The object is irrelevant; all you need do is recognize something that is important to those who you want to notice you, and make critical remarks thereabout. They do not have to be especially literate or insightful, almost any criticism will do. Be somebody! Be noticed! Tear down and try to destroy what someone else believes they have created. (This is a lot less dangerous than physically attacking someone.) PLUS: keep up this same ring around the thorns in your own mind regarding one of your thoughts criticizing and trying to destroy their’s and you will have no trouble keeping yourself in the dark, dreaming for the rest of your years here…(as always, there is the good news side of all this: don’t be a part of it).
Wednesday, and in the universe of one man’s mind, the dialogue continues, as
The Father Says To The Son: “There is something more I want to say concerning what I, day before last, was talking about regarding the king of everyone’s domain being protected by two sets of guards: the first, who act automatically and defend the liege from physical attack, and the second which is responsible for defending him from all non-physical assaults. Although they never speak theirs, the king’s physical guards are all of a like mind. Not so his non-physical protectors, and especially not so in a few select kingdoms which have amongst their mental guards, one who is a total anomaly, (insofar as such is possible).
This one guard is in almost complete disagreement with everything that the rest of the second guards do and believe, and essentially stands alone, in that none of the others can be recruited to his position. He does, however, have the ability, (as it were). to ‘create’ new guards who support his view, (insofar as such invented beings are able to do so). But when it comes to any actual facing off regarding the differences between the one rebellious second guard and his natural peers – he stands alone. His creations, (so to speak), offer him moral support, but only he can take any action pertinent to his rebellion. Assuming that any is possible, the action that the rebellious guard seems to desire is the eradication of the other guards with him as their sole replacement.
Upon casual observation, you can be fooled into thinking that this sole dissenter has more support than he does by the periodical, brief appearance of these private, neural Doppelgängers. But if you are to ever free your king from the useless shackles of his unnecessary defenses, you must see plainly the situation just as it is: only one guard – ‘thought’ – comprises the entire dissatisfaction and would-be rebellion, and that’s okay. That’s all it takes, once you and he have a clear picture of what is going on in the throne room.”
