unwittingly we've strayed into another land
DESCRIPTION
from WELCOME TO THE DARK. Odd things can happen when we are driven unconsciously to achieve conspicuous life goals. It is almost as if we tap into energies normally beyond our reach, and they can take us over if we are not careful. Then we create our own hubris and may destroy all that we have built. The famous stuff of Sunday tabloids and we remember the stories well.TRANSCRIPT
