eer....there is no you in the paino playing to do any careing.
so the question doesn't arrise
for a questin to arrise one would have to be able to state it.
as soon as you state it, you have your language.
so a tiggress, when she is hungry - she hunts.
she does not ask any questions, nor does she state any goals. she does not
know that she is extra irritible today because of her hunger.
however when that lady over there is hungry, she only knows it once she
states it, and then she can conciously act acordingly.
being something and knowing you are that something are two different
things. as soon as you know you are innocent, you are no longer innocent.
the person who politely says that he is hungry, is not the hungry male who
he is speaking for. He is a person who is immagining and asking for all
sor\ts of things - whiule the hungry male is nothing more than hungry.
sort of a flip flop thing.
i suppose one may think about it like your fingers are playing the paino
and you merly asked them to do so - now when you realise you are playing
the paino, you have stated it - oh - hey - cool - look at me - i'm playing
the paino. and then you know, and run from your neighbours.

plenty of people. they'd all have to not take themselves seriously. and
plunge into the wounderous world of contradictions withouth any qualms
