Our Path is showing us one of two things, 'I Am' or I Am Not'. I Am someone who believes this, I Am Not someone who believes this :-) I Am someone who believes that when it comes to beliefs, there is no right and wrong. I Am someone who sees the diversity of beliefs, I Am Not someone who digs their heels in against all comers that don't share the same beliefs as I do. I Am on my own Path, I Am Not on someone else's. I Am Not someone who believes there is a right and wrong Path, I Am someone that believes that if I was meant to be on another Path, that's where I'd be.

Right and wrong are simply applied terms, so if you say the moon is cheeze that's wrong and if Sydney's in Australia that's right.
I am making a deliberate statement and saying your beliefs are not true, you also know that, and if they are not true what are they being used for?

well, if you enter the Knitting Sheep's Curiosity Shop you'll have to chase your desires from shelf to shelf and then it might disappear through the ceiling ... but that a whole nother story. you can get to Wonderland via mirrors too, ya know.

for me Wonderland is a less structured reality, a place where logic and proportion are maleable and insanity is normal. it's where the subconscious plays unfettered by solid rules, what laws there are are as changeable as the creativity of Mind. you can believe in 6 impossible things before breakfast and they'd all be real.

yeah? and?
i've seen some very interesting impossible phenom burble up from the subconscious to effect material surface reality. when that happens some of Us laugh, some of Us freak out and some of Us don't see it all.
i suppose if one doesn't see it at all it means one is sane.
