   there is a reason for it ... IMO on that.   
      
   the defense structure makes this up for you ... for your own entertainment.   
      
   the fear one carries around inside gets mixed in with the intention in what   
   ever one is trying to create ... and that fear gets manifested in your   
   creative endeavors.   
      
   i use the incidents you speak of in the above as my emotional compass   
   looking inside to where my place of visions and my inner voice is ... as an   
   opportunity to put love in there ... change the emotional bathwater.   
      
   if there is pain ... use the love to take the pain away.   
      
   love has no pain ... love has no hurt.   
      
   IMO on that again.   
      
   and with this love ... comes knowledge.   
      
   it stings at first I have found ... but get used to it after a bit.   
      
   then the rain falls and then I know.
