if the subconscious is an ocean, then the thoughts and feelings and memories and ideas are waves; waves change with the tides and the weather; what's my weather, what's a mood? where's my moon, who's my moon, who shifts the sea? is the ocean a part of me, am i part of the ocean, or am i merely floating-- sometimes swimming, sometimes dog-paddling, sometimes surfing, sometimes drowning-- within or upon it? who is 'me', 'i'? ego, soul, a mysterious entity, nameless? how does this flesh vessel interact with the deeper within? how does the deeper within interact with the world?
