I like that, robomatic. I'm going to hand it out in the DBT group I facilitate when we talk about radical acceptance.
Thanks!
alanabit,
I'm not sure that logical thinking vs superstitiuos thinking is quite the right equation, though if you are teaching a curriculum, those may be the terms you are obliged to use. Superstition often has it's own internal logic based on beliefs that are accepted as fact.
Afraid I am not literary enough to offer any suggestions regarding illustrative short stories, but myths might be a place to look - especially minor myths to explain natural phenomena that do not delve much into archetypes.
