off the rails [i]
when the engine goes off of the rails (and over a cliff), the destruction is a progress in process. the beauty of this Play is that we can slooooooow it down. we can hit rewind (only to a degree) with memories, which makes the Play more real-i-stic.
we can choose the ending, but that’s not where the fun is.
the fun is right here, right now… experiencing the Play as the actor, the audience, the director and maybe even the Star. ad-libbing the lines. getting caught-up in all of it.
some of us, like those who read this blog, enjoy stepping out of the Play and re-Cognizing It for what It IS: a Play.

*note: "progress" is not always a positive thing. sometimes, it isn't even enjoyable!
