We have limited knowledge, understanding, insight, endurance and resources upon which we can draw. Some goals which we might imagine ourselves as achieving in fantasy---are in reality forever beyond our reach --- if we would but be honest with ourselves and each other. We do no one any good by pretending otherwise. Yet we need to accept some challenges which at first seem to us to involve impossible tasks. Sometimes people seem to achieve what others have regarded as essentially impossible. What of miracles? Often people believe that their range of responsibilities extends to guaranteeing the outcomes of their efforts. They believe that they must be in control of outcomes in order to fulfill their responsibilities. Thus they are preoccupied with issues of control and the development of manipulative technologies by which to achieve control of the outcomes of their efforts. Because what they imagine in their fantasy as their responsibility is often beyond their reach---the only way to manage to appear to fulfill their fantasies --- is within their fantasy land with the help of false appearances, deceptions, misleading behaviors, dishonesty, collusions and addictive/codependent behaviors. They lose touch with reality and others who are nearest and dearest to them. They alienate themselves and become dysfunctional. They and their communities disintegrate because they seek to control what is beyond their power, responsibility, right and privilege to control. Beware of such dishonest over- responsible people and their disintegrative ideals, values and ways. If people are loved only because of their achievements they are led to believe that they must try to control too much---with tragically disintegrative consequences. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
