Catchy title huh? Not original with me though. Came upon it while surfing and Googling. Read a bit, books & sermons, etc. Interesting analogy.
More thoughts:
The other day, Tmac pointed me to a poem by Marianne Williamson, Our Greatest Fear “Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.” Also interesting.
I remember really liking that old sci-fi pic “Forbidden Planet” with Walter Pidgeon and the self-destructive id.
Did you ever think of this place as sort of a giant playpen with built-in protections, - kind of like life with training wheels?
It is quite likely we are, in fact, “powerful beyond measure”. Can you imagine a toddler out of his playpen sitting in the cab of a giant earthmover, twiddling with this control, twiddling with that, with not a clue as to what he was doing?
As a child reaches a certain level of maturity in the womb, do you suppose he/she gets claustrophobic and pushes to get out?
Is it possible that men, on average, tend to leave this realm a little sooner than women, because they get claustrophobic faster?
Just wondrin’
