[MD] the subjective

[David M]

Krimel/Gav

We might even suggest that we do not usually simply 'be',
usually we are busy 'doing'. Somehow we are always
changing the situation, we are open to what is not, and
we negate the situation to bring about a new one. If
we really stop 'doing' anything we start to get some
really strange experiences and somehow become un-situated.
You ask DMB and his freaky friends.
