They took me up to the ship and did surgery on me. YES, I got pregnant and had an alien child, a misfit with a grotesque head. Did I love it? No, but I kept it. I fed it and nurtured it, but it turned on me. You can never trust aliens. So, I sit trying to figure out the mechanics of the situation, mainly how to throw it out in the garbage, the way they do tumors or other disgusting things.

That or he waits until his fear and panic of making the decision cause him to take action, any action at all, but all in a fog of willful ignorance -- pretending that certain facts don't exist or (intentionally?) misrepresenting probabilistic outcomes in his mind. All of this is done in an attempt to shield himself from self-hatred or acknowledging certain basic truths about the world that he would rather ignore. I see this sort of ex post self-justification happen in the comments section of this blog from people who are doomed to repeat past mistakes because they refuse a sense of responsibility about their own destiny."<br /><br /><br />maybe also the person tends to exaggerate in their mind the pitfalls and what could go wrong and avoids actions as a result of a distorted view of reality... an exaggerated negativity... less so a blind eye to basic truths and perhaps more in some cases an avoidant eye to imagined terrors... aspienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-57091420651979981472013-01-30T20:14:52.272-08:002013-01-30T20:14:52.272-08:00one approach: be grateful that you are you and not...one approach: be grateful that you are you and not her. and from that gratitude comes compassion, then freedom.
