reason.

we are trapped in it.

we can not stop.

being unreasonable is a crime.

so we have to persist.

thankfully the cage is semantic.

once we realise that we are caught in the meaning we give to a word......like reason.......then we can breathe a sigh of relief.

and be unreasonable.

because it`s the only way to be free.

Indeed but semantics can becaome a very strong cage to break out of.

that is why i love the joycian approach to language....

ambiguity is the key to communicating.

and saying anything you want to anyone.

and it is the reason why freud found the irish to be impervious to psychoanalysis.

we break out of the semantic trap when we choose our own meaning for words and choose or own words for people,places and things that happen.
