life can be lived primarily in an assumption of knowledge – we are born very emotional – this is a result of the independent ego we develop (as the more we get, the more we think we are entitled) by the time we are two we are throwing tantrums (at not getting) then we learn our place – then independent logic kicks in – I recall being quite excited when my little daughter began to deduce reality for herself – her own brain convinced her that her experiences were real – however true growth is to realize, that you, your brain and your experience – are also just an experience
