The Man Behind the Curtain

Slacbacmac, who found me through Vince's Journal, e-mailed to ask me:

Meanwhile, as a filosofer, it pondres me about the OZ story just what would have happened if they all had followed the instruction to IGNORE the Man behind the Curtain!

What a fun question!

I think Dorothy would have never gotten home, the Tin Man would have never found his heart, the Scarecrow his brain, or the Lion his courage.

We can't let "the man behind the curtain" create our reality.  We have to be true to ourselves, to what is real for us.
