Hi Rich,
There's always that occult principle of reversability.
Things are not always what they seem. The slave sometime
becomes the master. The good slave always does. Subjecting
oneself to another's will in deep sincerity can turn the
trick. One of the things that can be found out in a time is
that some people adopt a masterful, leadership role to cover
up for the fact that inwardly, they're not all they seem to
be. How many strong, domineering men have you ever observed
who kept the act up until they got home where it becomes very obvious that it's their wife who is the real boss? Standing
under someone can lead to understanding.
With most people, I usually like the mask better than the
creator. If a person gnows the persona is a mask they
created, and they love the creator of the mask, then we
be-co-me-s much more easily. '-)

Then, it probably isn't. Like many people who have done a
lot of traveling I have a lot of nay-me-s. Not necessarily
to be deceptive, but to see if people will accept me in the
different personas I have pretended to. It certainly doesn't
make any difference to me who I think I am, why should it to
them?
I woke up with the strangest dream. A group of men had
offered some of us well-paying jobs selling cigarettes, in a
week. We went out to play and there were some mini-scooters
sitting around called 531s. We got on the scooters to play
around, and mine was very unusual. The motor revved real
high, but it was slow and the others ran in circles around
me. Funny though, it was raining and my 531 threw up a
rooster tail... in front of it! Everything is the reverse
with me.
We returned to the building where the men were who had
offered us the jobs. All the doors along the hallway had
padlocks on them except for this one door to the room where
we had made the deal. As I opened the door, I could see that
the room had been cleared out, and the men were packing
stuff in briefcases. They were going to run out on us and stiff the deal. We were infuriated. They attempted to leave
the building, but we grabbed their briefcases. One of us
demanded they compensate us for leading us on. They started
writing checks, and I told my guy, "Make it a big one!"
I felt very pleased, as if I knew something he didn't. Big,
strong-looking Armenian fellow with nervous eyes. I gnow
him. The jig is up.
