I really don't know
It seems symbolic to me, that so little is known about it, or him
That the fictional him, is more known about, than the real him
And as for laws, what are they?
Where would 1 go about finding them?
It would seem rational, that there must be some
I mean, I'll give an example, I saw this on the TV being done, and the person, never actually appeared to be asleep
You could be hypnotised into giving over your wallet, of your own free will
Would this be theft?
On the TV, the guy asked for a few things, he had map, was asking for directions, said he was lost
He also had a bottle of water, he asked his 'victim' to hold his bottle of water for him, so he could, unfold the map
Upon leaving, he asked them, to give them his wallet, which around 8 out of 10 of them did
A few minutes later, you could see them, rubbing their head, looking puzzled, presumably as the penny start to dropeth
The Abbé, was a Goan chap.
I've always wanted to go to Goa
His statue, is in the capital of Goa
Upon learning about him, again, I became, probably a bit egocentric, and wondered.
What sort of cruel twist of fate is this?
Are the Gods, having a joke, at my expense
Or is it a fate, of a different kind?
When I will finally become aware, and enlightened, of things, I've spent, practically a whole lifetime, wanting to become enlightened of?
And it's a difficult thing to become aware of
As it's 1 of those things, people deny all knowledge of.
Instead simply asking, what you may know
While they claim to know nothing
All I've really become aware of, is sometimes the more you ask questions, to try to become aware of something, the less likely they are to be answered, and thus, the less likely you are, to become aware of them
You see, I was sexually abused as a child
And when this was happening, I could not move
I was not physically restrained, in any way
But I could not move, to try to stop them, or to run away
I have to wonder, how such a thing, may be possible.
And hypnotism, is the only conclusion I can reach
And then, it goes further, I recall before going to 1 meeting with a shrink, asking my mother, if I should tell them about this
She said, it was up to me, I replied, I know that, but what do you think?
No, she replied, you should not. But why Mum? Particularly as you've just been at pains to tell me, that I should tell the shrink everything
No reason, you asked me, I think no
I then forgot about it all, for a very long time.
This had happened before
So, again, I apologize to anybody who is sick of me bleeting on about personal experiences
But I hope they'd understand, why I'd think it is relevant, and would be curious about such things
As much like the abbé, it remains mysterious.
And my mum now says, it never happened, it's a symptom ( a delusion) caused by an illness
Thus, the fiction, is more known, than the reality
Strangely symbolic huh?
Well I think so
