NOTES TO MYSELF

PSYCHOLOGICAL AGE

CLASS

[narcissistic hostility & fantasy] - In the olden days, if people said certain things, you'd kill them; if you said certain things, they'd kill you. That's the world they come from. They have their own country. They think people live in caves and that's it.

REFLECTIONS

Banana

I own a little white sailboat, named Banana, sitting on a trailer by the San Francisco Bay. This afternoon I noticed someone had swiped one of the pins that hold the mast up. Can you imagine? Now if I told this story to a certain kind of person, he might regard me and the sailboat with the utmost contempt. "They stole part of your rigging, huh? Don't you hate it when someone rips off your sailboat?"

—Stately.

-or-

—It's murder!

     

When someone believes they're missing something, they sometimes repeat your very words, seasoning them with a little menace. They tend to see life in terms of those who have and those who have not, forgetting that everyone's dreams are on the inside. If I told that very same story in terms of a dream I had, of owning a little while sailboat and doing everything I could to make that dream come true, do you think anyone would really want to have MY dream?

Defending yourself is not so much the mastery of arch rejoinders, thereby proving yourself clever. It is rather the illumination of human individuality, and the gestures you make toward furthering your own aims, dreams and ideals. When you honestly remember your own inner experiences, you can connect with other people on a simple commonality: We all have little dreams, big dreams, failed dreams, and dreams come true.

Sexual Tension

People can't let tension build up —
they don't have faith that it will release.

You can't let your mind do a number on you.

I would pay a little more attention to what I like,
and a little less attention to what I don't like.

If you can forestall pleasure for a while,
you'll get even more pleasure.
