Hey I identify with those (stairwells), as they are a major feature in my dreamscapes. A Jungian psychoanalyst told me that if you are descending you are going further into an unconscious state (going further into collective consciousness) and if you are ascending you are reaching a higher spiritual plateu.
This does not mean you are manic...she called it gifted.
Sounds like a bunch of psychoanalytic hooey but she went into great detail at the time and seemed to be highly versed in that topic. She also seemed to be highly versed in most of the randomness I threw at her, and the more I gave her thinking I would get a diagnosis, the more she said that not only was I perfectly normal, I was also highly gifted.
Sweeeeet.
See, I don't think I am gifted....
but that was money well spent. You may have this one Mocking for free.
Hey Zen- I just gave someone in a nice jacket an unreasonable amount of money. In fact he was dressed so well that I gave him more money than I normally would. I didn't care about a con or not. He's honest, he says he needs to eat. So I gave him enough for an ok lunch. The next day (yesterday) I was treated to a gift at my normal coffee shop. He had left an electronic keyboard for me with the owners of the coffee shop. I still believe in people. It's probably a weakness. I don't care.
