domesticated us


The journey from childhood to adulthood is from being wholly independent of the opinions of others, to being completely dependent on what others think. We slowly but surely manage all the surprise and spontaneity out of our lives. Our thoughts and actions are limited to a fixed repertoire of responses. Like the family cat, we have become domesticated - trained to think and behave in certain, fixed, prescribed ways.
