Maybe some day you will knock me down. NOT YET, but this attempt was not so feeble. :-)

Mary - I love you for that remark. Not only because I feel understood but also - mainly - because: How could I forget CONSCIOUSNESS? Why did something that important not come to my mind? Another evidence that also the best of us all (that's me, of course, heheh) are in no way protected against not seeing the most essential...

Naemanson - whether Mudcat is a daisy or not does not depend on Mudcat but on those who participate. That's not the same to me! Please also note what I think I must tell to

Mousethief - to me you didn't add something to the problem, you rather added some very good suggestions for words to understand what we are talking about. Thank you, that helped me. (Nevertheless I still don't know what kind of thread this is. I never know what doesn't seem important to me. My fault.)

Again you said something that tells something to me: "WHAT you DO affects HOW you BE". Correct! And what about: "HOW you BE affects WHAT you DO"? Very trivial but still correct. Do you notice that this makes up a circle? Every time I notice a circle of this kind I get a feeling of "Ouch!" that is very difficult to explain. I would very much appreciate knowing your opinion of such circles, because I think we (at least I) might obtain still another key to the problem we are talking about here.

kat - Hmmmm... May I mark your posting just above with a CAPITAL ASTERISK? It gave me some completely new idea I first have to understand myself, so please give me some time...
