    “the more we get into our bodies and follow our intuiton, the better off we’ll be”. “false PRESUMPTIONS!!! about what constitutes realism and sanity”.
    It took me half a century to learn to really listen to my intuiton. Since then, I can see in hindsight just how much difficulty I could have avoided. Better late than never!
    Those false presumptions are the core of the problem, disease, deception, whatever? Practiced intentional casual self-righteous PRESUMPTION! To question it is unpatriotic, treasonous even. To see and be aware of these manipulations is becomming something that a greater and greater number of people are unable to avoid even when they would prefer to do just that. I’m hoping that there is a lilmit to just how long and how many human beings can actually lie to themselves and believe it! Experience has shown that some can do it indefinitely. Hope enables me to cling to a dream of that hundredth monkey finally tipping the balance in favor of reality and sanity once and for all.
