For some reason, that reminds me of this:

I think it'd be interesting to get into the mind of someone who's mentally disturbed, especially a schizophrenic. Otherwise, any of my former dogs' thoughts would've been pretty entertaining.

I'd be interested in knowing what in the hell I'm thinking sometimes.

My sister used to work as a nurses' aide, and she frequently "babysat" on the psych ward. She had some pretty interesting patients. One (schizophrenic) was convinced that half of her face had turned black, and couldn't tear herself away from the mirror. Another asked her for a broom once. She asked why, and the patient said they wanted to shoe away all the birds that had gathered on the ceiling. My sister has a lot of stories about the psych ward....

Please don't take my previous comment to be an admission of being a schizophrenic, because I'm not...and niether am I.

How do you know that you wouldn't become trapped in there with them? A sort of periwinkle in wonderland? As tempting as it may seem to know someone else's thoughts, I think that it would change you irrevocably. The whole idea kind of freaks me out in much the same way that thinking someone might be invading my thoughts does.

in a good way!!! in a good way!!! i would think that the DL would be the centre of calm and peace and any change in ANYBODY'S personality from his influence would be good. i certainly didn't mean anything negative.

the DL's my choice, but only if i get to keep re-connecting with his spirit each time it is reborn.
