Falling in love Let's say you went to buy a used car. The salesman have this bad car which he polished up. He wants to sell you the car. He wants to trick you. That's the way this particular salesman usually operates. He wants you to believe that it is a great car when it really is a bad car. You realise what is happening. You see exactly what is happening. You see the polished up car and you see right through the salesman. You know he wants to trick you and you know the exact condition, the true condition of the car. You just know it. In fact you knew what was going to happen even before you came to the place. And what do you do? You say to yourself: "let's have this salesman sell me this bad car. I will have to spend lots of money fixing the car, I will have a reason to complain about salesmen and cars, I will be occupied with this problem car for months." It's perfect! So you pretend to be bluffed all the way. You close your eye just at the exact moment when you should have looked. And you say to yourself that you were not responsible. The salesman is responsible, you say. Let's say you have been through a divorce and after a few years you feel very lonely. After some weeks of pondering this subject you make a decision. It cuts like a knife through every doubt, shyness and bitterness you might feel. You decide you will find someone. The next day you go to town and after a little time you walk into this shop which you wouldn't normally even consider walking into. Behind the counter you see this wonderful lady and you just know that you will walk up to her and ask her out. You look at her and she shines towards you like the North Star. Ten weeks later you are married to her. You look at her while you are having breakfast together and you say to yourself: "It was like she was standing there waiting for me!" And that was exactly right.
