Our minds are like that, many parts, but getting some harmony among the buggers is the problem.One of my favorite "short stories by Edith Wharton" is called something like "The Fullness of Life," and she describes people as being like a house with many rooms -- the hallway, where everyone comes and goes; the drawing room, for formal visits; and in the most private room, the soul sits alone. I don't remember all of it, but it's a story I like a lot, and I recommend it.
OK. You may now return to your regularly scheduled programming. I apologize for any inconvenience this Special Announcement may have caused.
