So why do you conclude that my interaction with Reefs over on ST and my decision to leave to post here, necessarily equals 'suffering' for me? Y ou are trying to change the course of events. Story rules your life even though you try hide yourself from it. Enigma is another cause, he is allowing you to see through this illusion. What to do! What do you base this upon? What 'events' do you see me trying to change? I DO agree, the story indeed 'impacts' my life to varying degrees depending upon how deeply engaged I am with it, But it only 'rules' if I am completely and totally immersed within (asleep to) the story. I'm not. I see it all to be a story, far too clearly, to become lost to any particular story-line. Enigma is 'a cause'? So you believe that actual 'cause' to realization arises within the story? Or would that just be 'apparent cause'...as in, that's how the story is playing out? It sounds to me as though on one hand, you want to say "it's all just a story," but then on the other, "it's something more than just a story," that there is Truth inherent in it.

The assumption is yours. And a bit of free advice, man to man; Don't EVER tell a woman you know better than she does what she's feeling. Hey, the kid needs all the survival tips he can get.

No, it's not clear. You are observing an event (fig's experience on ST) and insisting she is suffering from it. what I am saying, what you are replying? I kept telling you not to drink that green kryptonite stuff, but you wouldn't listen.

Well, the first thing to do is to respond to the apparent contradiction that Figs and I have both pointed out. After that, you can explain how I'm 'allowing' her to see through some illusion.

I say story rules, you both say no matter whatever story is, you can still witness the story without getting affected or caught into the story. I say story would decide whether you are getting caught up or not.

Hey, the kid needs all the survival tips he can get. As I recall, you're the one who doesn't say 'I love you' to your wife because you said it before and you will notify her if there is any change pending forthwith.

I have the intention of making fun while I was saying to her. She stare at me while I was saying it but she also knows that I was making fun.
