All we have to work with comes down to ourselves and our good looks, each other, our collective ingenuity and Psyche, Tao and Intuition. That’s all there is when we plop out of the womb, and that remains all there is throughout the time left for living. You might think that Psyche, Tao and Intuition would play a larger role in our life than they currently do, but. They get no respect and practically no playing time at all. You might think that we would devote ourselves to their tender care and the development of our relationship with them throughout our life, but. We use Psyche to talk to the dead, take our intuition to the roulette wheel in Vegas, and mispronounce Tao at every opportunity. Not exactly what we would call making the most of our chances, eh?
