... he was the one who kept (* CRASHING INTO HER THOUGHTS, making her doubt her own
perceptions,*) the one (* WHOSE WHISPERS GUIDED HER INTO DEEP TUNNELS *) that
only felt like home when she was bound and blindfolded and made his prisoner.
[[Text: source p.211]]
But (* THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS FINALLY CATCHING UP TO HER. IT MIGHT BURY HER
LIKE AN AVALANCHE IF SHE LET IT.*)
[[Text: source p.184]]
She closed her eyes, (* DIVING INTO THE DELUGE FOR CLUES,*) for
anything that might help her understand what happened.
[[Text: source p.181]]
Sara (* FOLLOWED THE LEAP HER MOTHER'S THOUGHTS HAD MADE: an accident, another
of my children hurt or in trouble.*)
[[Text: source p.163]]
{possible combination with IDEAS AS INTERNAL UTTERANCES}
Tentatively, she hugged Belinda, and then (* IT CAME RUSHING BACK TO HER.*) She
(* thought *) of lying beside her friend, ...
[[Text: source p.128]]
... the sound of flushing woke her up for a moment. But then Anthony took
her hand, led her back to bed, and (* SHE SLID AGAIN INTO DREAMS.*)
[[Text: source p.84]]
She chewed off her lipstick, trying to strip down, (* CLAW HER WAY TO SOME
SHRED OF SELF-CONFIDENCE THAT HAD TO BE THERE STILL---IT HAD BEEN THERE ONCE
*)---before Anthony. But (* SHE ONLY SANK DEEPER, DANGEROUS WATERS RISING OVER
HER HEAD.*)
[[Text: source p.72]]
She had lost track of time; she had no idea how long they'd been standing
there, or whether there was anyone else still at the party. (* SHE DEMANDED THAT
HER MIND COME BACK TO EARTH AND PAY ATTENTION.*)
[[Text: source p.36]]
Her plans had been so simple---maybe too simple---but (* LAID OUT IN
THE DARKNESS ON THE NIGHTS SHE COULDN'T SLEEP, THEY DIDN'T SEEM OUT OF REACH.*)
[[Text: source p.31]]
And besides, Belinda knew that (* Sara's MIND WAS FOLLOWING THE TRAIL OF HER [Belinda's] THOUGHTS.*)
At that moment, (* Belinda's THOUGHTS HAD TURNED AGAIN TO *) the blood in the toilet
bowl ...
[[Text: source p.31]]
{not clear that second sentence is itself a manifestation of MIND WITHIN PHYSICAL SPACE}
(* THIS THOUGHT PRESSING ON ME WHEN I AWOKE, HELD OTHER THOUGHTS IN A CONFUSED
CONCOURSE, AT A DISTANCE.*)
[[Text: source p.195]]
And (* THAT BROUGHT HIM BACK AGAIN TO THE VEXING, TEASING PROBLEM *) to which as yet he could find no answer.
Why kidnap Betty Sprot?
[[Text: source p.112-3]]
`In that case,' she said, (* SHAKING OFF THE BAD MEMORY,*) `you might call
him this afternoon.'
[[Text: source p.141]]
Mr. Carmichael didn't know how to (* UNTANGLE HIMSELF FROM THE CONFUSION.*)
[[Text: source p.141]]
When twelve o'clock struck, Judge Arcadio had consumed a dozen beers.
(* HE WAS FLOATING IN MEMORIES.*)
[[Text: source p.25]]
Dr. Zilbergeld [said,] ` ... Allow yourself to fantasize. Sit at your desk and
(* ALLOW YOUR MIND TO WANDER TO *) a great night of sex in the past. ... '
[[Text: source p.79]]
{NB: mixing w. TIME AS SPACE}
But unlike me, Patrick is (* ready to *) (* PUT ALL THE OTHER STUFF ASIDE *)
and make love. I'll go along, but (* inside I'm going over *) who RSVP'd and
whether serving minipizzas is just asking for trouble on my new rug.
[[Text: source p.77]]
(* Bracken's MIND TOOK HIM BACK TO THE BLIZZARD *) ...
[[Text: source]]
{incorrectly categorized?}
The inventive gambling proponents ... can (* TURN THEIR HEADS TO *) what might
be legal on reservations with horse racing, ...
[[Text: source]]
(* THE THOUGHT HUNG ABOUT THEM, EACH CONSIDERING IT IN A
DIFFERENT WAY.*)
[[Text: source p.604]]
So, as the summer advanced, (* SHE PUT HER Bracken FROM HER MIND *) and
concentrated all her energies on helping the moles about her.
[[Text: source p.578]]
(* AS THESE INSIGHTS ABOUT FIGHTING CAME TO Bracken,*) he began to understand
other things that Medlar had taught. One of them was the idea that there is no
such thing as a talon lunge by itelf: a proper fighter lunges with his whole
body, which for Medlar meant with his whole spirit.
[[Text: source p.418]]
(* LETTING HIS MIND WANDER OUT OF HIS BODY AND AROUND THE HORIZON IN THE
CIRCLE.*)
[[Text: source p.385]]
(* HE DID NOT THINK ABOUT THE ANSWER BUT RATHER WALLOWED WITH IT IN AN IMAGE OF
THE STONE, WONDERING WHAT THE QUESTION MEANT.*)
[[Text: source p.315]]
(* SUCH A THOUGHT WAS SO FAR FROM HIS MIND --- INDEED, IT WAS SO FAR FROM HIS
EXPERIENCE *) --- that it quite took his breath away.
[[Text: source p.201]]
(* HULVER FELT AS IF HIS WORDS WERE EXPLORING A TUNNEL DOWN WHICH HE HIMSELF
HAD NEVER BEEN.*)
[[Text: source p.76]]
Bracken's (* MIND WAS IN A WHIRL *..) ... (.* HE FELT LOST IN HIS
THOUGHTS, LITERALLY LOST, FOR HE COULDN'T FIND WHERE AMONG THEM HE ACTUALLY
WAS.*) ... (* HE WAS FINALLY DRAGGED --- that's what it felt
like --- OUT OF THESE THESE THOUGHTS BY HULVER,*) ...
[[Text: source p.69-70]]
As a person who has dropped some grain of pearl or diamond into the grass and
parts the tall blades carefully, this way and that, and searches here and there
vainly, and at last spies it there at the roots, so she (* WENT THROUGH ONE
THING AND ANOTHER *)...
[[Text: source p.44]]
She somehow found it threatening and disturbing, (* TORN BETWEEN SUSIE'S
EASY-GOING SLUTTISHNESS AND HER OWN MORE STOLID VIEWS.*)
[[Text: source p.225]]
{Mixing with MIND AS FABRIC.}
(* FORCED HIS MIND BACK TO PLANS AND TIMETABLE.*)
[[Text: source p.128]]
He snapped the light back on, (* FORCED HIS MIND BACK TO THE ISSUE *) of
the baby.
[[Text: source p.125]]
He walked to and fro across the little room, and it was as if (* THE DARK
BIRD-THOUGHTS WHICH HAD BEEN TEARING ROUND AND ROUND LIKE SWIFTS HAD BEGUN TO
SETTLE QUIETLY ON THE FURNITURE AND REGARD HIM WITH THEIR BRIGHT EYES.*)
[[Text: source p.581]]
It is over, she thought, (* BANISHING THESE SAD IMAGES,*) it is finished.
[[Text: source p.523]]
(* FATHER MCALISTER, by a gesture familiar to him, HANDED THE WHOLE MATTER OVER
TO his Master, knowing that IT WOULD BE HANDED BACK *) to him later in a more
intelligible state.
[[Text: source p.510]]
{NB: nesting within knowledge}
He tried ... to (* DRIVE AWAY HIS SUDDEN FOREBODINGS *) and hold
onto Jenken's laughter as onto something good.
[[Text: source p.364]]
Now (* THE IMPLICATIONS OF HER POSITION UNFOLDED AROUND HER.*)
[[Text: source p.324]]
Of course he was still in mourning for his father. (* THERE WAS A DIRECTION IN
WHICH HE CONSTANTLY TURNED, TO BE CONFRONTED BY AN ABSENCE.*)
[[Text: source p.273]]
(* GERARD'S REFLECTIONS AND FEELINGS EXPANDED ABOUT HIM INTO A STILLED
THOUGHT-CHAMBER WHEREIN HE CEASED TO HEAR THE TRAFFIC OR BE AWARE OF THE
PASSERS-BY.*)
[[Text: source p.216]]
He said, '(* CRIMOND'S GOT HIS HEAD IN A CLOUD OF THEORIES, HE WON'T EVEN
NOTICE YOU.*) ...'
[[Text: source p.154]]
... (* WHILE GERARD WALKED WRAPPED IN THE GREAT DARK CLOAK OF THIS THOUGHTS, *) ...
[[Text: source p.131]]
Levquist said, (* FOR HIS MIND BY SOME OTHER SECRET THOUGHTWAY HAD ALSO REACHED
SINCLAIR,*)
[[Text: source p.24]]
(* SO MANY CONFUSED EMOTIONS WERE DARTING AND FLASHING ABOUT, I FELT AS IF MY
HEAD WERE WRAPPED UP IN A SORT OF SPARKLING GAUZY VEIL, POSITIVELY BUNDLED UP
WITH INTENSE FEELING.*)
[[Text: source p.329]]
The sad man was in an (* ABYSS OF HOPELESSNESS *)
[[Text: source]]
Until she learned to (* REDIRECT HER MORBID THOUGHTS *..) about death,
(..* TO AIM THEM WHERE THEY BELONGED: ON THE KILLER,*) John Byrd.
[[Text: source]]
(* SOMETHING WAS NAGGING AT ME,*) ... It was Lena Irwin's reference
yesterday to the Burton Kinsey family up in Lampoc.
[[Text: source]]
{mixed with IDEAS AS INTERNAL UTTERANCES?}
I hardly knew (* WHERE TO TAKE THE MATTER NEXT.*)
[[Text: source]]
(* HOLD ON TO THE THOUGHT.*) ...
[[Text: source]]
But even as (* HE CAUGHT AT THIS HOPE *) he ...
[[Text: source]]
(* THE IDEA CAME TO HIM to replace *) [the statue] in the garden ...
[[Text: source]]
... (* THE FACTS, THE TRUTH SLAMMED BACK AT HIM ONCE MORE,*) the reality that she
had murdered ...
[[Text: source]]
But he noticed something else about the garden that (* STRUCK HIM HOLLOWLY.*)
[[Text: source]]
But Cheryl's purpose in stealing was (* BEYOND HER {i.e. Christine}.*) It
was as if (* CHRISTINE'S MIND STOPPED SHORT AT *) the stealing itself, giving
no thought to what Cheryl stole for.
[[Text: source]]
{NB: discourse coherence between BEYOND HER and STOP SHORT.}
He didn't know how he thought of it. (* IT CAME TO HIM ON WINGS OF SERENE
APPROPRIATENESS.*)
[[Text: source]]
There was something else that (* HADN'T OCCURRED TO HIM till now. HE GOT IT
OUT AND CONFRONTED IT.*) ... Suppose Gerard Arnham hadn't been called that at
all?
[[Text: source]]
Recalling Arnham had (* PLUNGED HIM BACK ONCE MORE INTO THE PIT OF ANXIETY AND
DOUBT.*)
[[Text: source]]
(* IT STRUCK HIM PAINFULLY THAT *) ...
[[Text: source]]
(* HIS THOUGHTS DRIFTED IN HER DIRECTION, TO THE NIGHT THAT *) he had seen her
steal [something].
[[Text: source]]
He would have (* SHUNNED THE IDEA *..) if he could. He would have (..*
ESCAPED FROM THE KNOWLEDGE ... THAT *) ...
[[Text: source]]
He comforted himself with (* THE NOTION --- A BRILLIANT ONE THAT HAD COME TO
HIM UNSOUGHT *) ---
[[Text: source]]
That first week after their reunion, (* THE NECESSITY of this creation [of a
murderous fantasy for Senta's satisfaction] rather LOOMED OVER HIM. HE FELT ITS
DARK PRESSURE *) even when he was most happy, ..., and (* into the deep peace
*..) of the aftermath of love-making, when he should have been most free of
care, (..* INTRUDED this silent staring threat.
[[Text: source]]
(* THE THOUGHT CAME UNBIDDEN AND MOST UNWELCOME, she was all right without me,
... *)
[[Text: source]]
{mixed metaphor, w IDEAS AS INTERNAL UTTERANCES}
Philip, momentarily, had a strange (* FEELING THAT CAME QUITE UNBIDDEN.*)
... (* THIS UNWELCOME REFLECTION FLED *) as fast as it had come [because ...].
[[Text: source]]
{discourse coherence}
Once (* THE IDEA of writing to her had COME TO HIM, or rather, once THE
IDEA of what he should write HAD COME,*) (* his unhappiness had gone and he had
been filled with hope.*)
[[Text: source]]
(* AN IDEA HAD COME TO HIM OUT OF THE AIR, OUT OF NOTHING, AN IDEA OF
STUPENDOUS MAGNITUDE,*) a total solution. (* IT FELLED HIM *) so that he spoke
to her in a tone of vagueness, hesitantly, unable to find the ordinary simple
words.
[[Text: source]]
Still, he could write a love letter, he knew he could, (* PHRASES from the
fullness of his heart and his longing WERE ALREADY COMING TO HIM,*) ...
[[Text: source]]
{mixed metaphor, with IDEAS AS INTERNAL UTTERANCES?}
There was a girl's voice at the other end [of the telephone line]. IT WAS
CATCHING UP ON ME FAST WHO SHE WAS.*)
[[Text: source]]
Tom had not long to live. Sharon was about to give birth. (* THE IRONIES
WERE EVERYWHERE *) but neither felt the need to dwell on them.
[[Text: source]]
{wrongly classed?}
(*IMPRISONED IN A DREAMLIKE STATE *) she kept bumping into shoppers, ...
[[Text: source]]
He had (* GIVEN ME BACK THAT BELIEF *) that anything was possible, when my (*
faith in myself had perhaps begun to get frayed at the edges.*)
[[Text: source]]
(* IT HAD GOT TO ME THAT *) I didn't want anyone else to have Mick, ...
[[Text: source]]
But I was cheap. Cheap enough that (* THE IDEA *..) of paying the
detective more after what he'd done so far (..* TUGGED AT ME.*)
[[Text: source]]
It kept (* COMING BACK AT ME *) like something bad, the dates, the calendar
time.
[[Text: source]]
{NB: comparison may be to bad food, in which case the "coming back" is already
metaphorical: MIXED METAPHOR}
He (* CAME TO HIS BELIEF *) in [psychoanalysis] slowly ...
[[Text: source]]
What if Morley was getting too close to the truth and had been eliminated as a
consequence? (* I WAS TORN BETWEEN THE NOTION *..) of murder as too farfetched
(..* AND THE WORRY THAT *) someone was actually getting away with it. (* I WENT
BACK AND FORTH, EXPLORING THE POSSIBILITIES.*) ...{2 short sentences}... Had
[Morley] been silenced? I could feel myself (* SHY AWAY FROM THE IDEA.*)
[[Text: source]]
{NB: DISCOURSE COHERENCE between "torn between", "went back and forth" and "shy
away".}
Something was off here, but what? I thought about what David Barney'd said when
he'd suggested Morley's death was a shade too convenient. Was there something
to that? It was a question I couldn't stop and pursue at the moment, but (* IT
HAD A DISQUIETING ENERGY ATTACHED TO IT.*) (* I SET THE NOTION ASIDE, BUT I HAD
A FEELING IT WAS GOING TO STICK TO ME WITH A CERTAIN BURRLIKE TENACITY.*)
[[Text: source]]
{NB: DISCOURSE COHERENCE between "disquieting energy attached to it" and "going
to stick to me".}
Night and day I am beset by intimations of the end---it is close
now. ... through (* erosion of my happiness and self-interest *) I have come to
a state where (* the grosser delusions fall from my eyes, and the inner truth
becomes clear to my vision.*) I do not sleep, for at night the silence and
darkness (* BRING ME CLOSER IN KNOWLEDGE TO His AWFUL POWER,*) ...
[[Text: source]]
And I can already see ... that she is in need of a companion who will stand up
to her, and (* GUIDE HER AWAY FROM SOME OF THESE IMPETUOUS DECISIONS *) she is
prone to making. She seems to (* GRASP IDEAS SO QUICKLY AND LIGHTLY *) that I
tell myself I am dull-witted; and yet, many a time, she lacks the stamina to (*
BRING THEM OUT TO THEIR LOGICAL CONCLUSION.*)
[[Text: source]]
... but I could not (* quell my sense of agitation *) at our situation. In what
was it strange? What more natural than that Mr Wroe ... should offer to bring
me home? ... {one sentence} ... But (* THE STRANGENESS *..) of us being in such
a place together (..* SWAM BEFORE ME *) continually, and when he knocked firmly
on the bedchamber door I nearly jumped out of my skin.
[[Text: source]]
{METONYMY: THING FOR IDEA}
... but once (* SHE HAD HOLD OF THE IDEA SHE WOULD
NOT LET GO,*) and worried and teased me until I did agree.
[[Text: source]]
She laughs and shrugs, as if to (* SHAKE OFF GLOOMY THOUGHTS.*)
[[Text: source]]
... (* MY MIND RETURNS TO *)
(*THE THOUGHT HOVERED OVER HIM *) like the onset of a nightmare.
I'm not sure whether (* THE THOUGHT CAME TO MY HEAD *) just now, or whether I
actually had the thought before.
(Recall that according to the Platonic viewpoint, mathematical ideas have an
[external] existence of their own, and (* INHABIT AN IDEAL PLATONIC WORLD,*)
which is (* ACCESSIBLE VIA THE INTELLECT *) only; ...) When one (* `SEES' A
MATHEMATICAL TRUTH,*) (* ONE'S CONSCIOUSNESS BREAKS INTO THIS WORLD OF IDEAS,
AND MAKES DIRECT CONTACT WITH IT *) (`accessible via the intellect'). ... When
mathematicians communicate, this is made possible by each one having a (*
DIRECT ROUTE TO TRUTH,*) ...
The overwhelming intellectual anesthesia and emotional analgesia of sexual
arousal quickly (* ENVELOPED ME, INSULATED ME,*) and I rocked faster and
faster. ... The insistence of impending orgasm (* DREW ME FARTHER AND FARTHER
FROM MY THOUGHTS, CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THAT SPECIAL MOMENTARY PLACE *) where
all wrongs are righted... Then, (* DRIVEN FROM ALONENESS, I ROCKETED INTO THE
SOFT BLACK WOMB OF THE ID *) ---
... when I was (* STRUCK BY AN ODD THOUGHT SEEMINGLY FROM NOWHERE: What would
Jacqui see? *) [in the reflection in the cake]
This idea crystallized the nebulous (* MENTAL MEANDERINGS *) ...
And this (* HIGH PRIDE *) in being human had (* LIFTED HIM
UNACCOUNTABLY TO AN INFINITE HEIGHT ABOVE THE MONSTROUS MEN AROUND HIM.*..)
... he (..* LOOKED DOWN *) upon all their sprawling eccentricities from the
starry pinnacle of the commonplace.
... filled with a supernatural (* COURAGE THAT CAME FROM NOWHERE.*)
(* WE ARE WANDERING,*..) however, (..* FROM THE POINT *) ... I take it we
should all agree with the original notion of a bomb ...
There was a second (* THOUGHT THAT NEVER CAME TO HIM.*) It never (*
occurred *) to him to be spiritually won over to the enemy.
Then there (* FELL UPON HIM THE GREAT TEMPTATION *) that was to (* TORMENT
*) him for many days.
So far, in fact, there is no clear-cut definition of "victory" in the drug
war. "We've got to be careful here " one Pentagon official confides. "(* THE
MILITARY IS STILL GROPING *) with their final objective." With its prestige on
the line, will the military settle for the "support" role Cheney has set for
it, or will a logic of escalation take hold?
The American-led battle to oust Saddam Hussein's forces from Kuwait is an
increasingly (* DISTANT MEMORY.*)
Students still (* MISSED THE POINT.*)
But Carson's scholarship (* LED HIM TO A DISTURBING DISCOVERY,*) ...
(* ON THE PSYCHOLOGICAL FRONT, AMERICANS HAVE SWUNG ABRUPTLY FROM THE HIGH OF
PEACE AND PROSPERITY TO THE DREAD OF RECESSION AND WAR.*)
That includes women, who share (* THE ALTERNATING CURRENTS OF BOREDOM AND
PAIN THAT NOW COURSE THROUGH DAILY LIFE *) in the gulf.
There are several points where (* THE AUTHOR VEERS FROM THE TRUTH.*)
Since then the American left has been (* CAUGHT IN A CONTRADICTION.*)
Bush conceded that he didn't yet share "this wonderful euphoric feeling" that
(* HAD SWEPT UP SO MANY OF HIS COUNTRYMEN.*)
... and by retelling stories about (* persistence *), from The Little Engine That
Could to accounts of (* REAL-LIFE PEOPLE WHO CLUNG FAST TO THEIR VISION *)
despite disappoinments or derision.
In long-term relationships there is often a kind of gift-giving
burnout, and it can cause (* COUPLES TO LEAN TOWARD THE PRACTICAL.*)
I say whatever (* COMES TO MY MIND.*)
If this is book of mine fails to takes a straight course, it
is because (* I AM LOST IN A STRANGE REGION; I HAVE NO MAP.*)
The sad man was in an abyss of hopelessness.
I don't know (* WHERE MY MIND WAS*)
Avoiding the pitfalls of self-delusion isn't easy, since most people who are
(* IN THE MIDST OF DENIAL *) don't realize it.
It was harder to (* FACE WHY *) they suddenly weren't having sex.
... (* MARILYN'S BRAIN HAD UNWITTINGLY SHIELDED HER FROM THE TRAUMA.*)
Consequently, she felt no anger toward her father while growing up, "because I
had no conscious knowledge of what he was doing to me."
(* HE CONFRONTED THE LIMITATIONS *) of his phone work when he discovered he
couldn't tell a patient had broken down in sobs.
Rather than (* CONFRONT A WEIGHT GAIN *), we'll simply avoid the
scale and any full-length mirrors in the bathroom.
Not until eight months had passed and she finally checked the phone bill
did (* ANNE CONFRONT THE REALITY *) of her husband's deception.
In many cases, (* self-destructive patterns *...) engendered by denial can
actually prove tougher to (...* FACE *) ...
Deep down, though, the thought that something serious might be wrong with her
physically was simply too scary to (* FACE.*)
Though she's still having to (* CONFRONT THE CONSEQUENCES *) of defaulting on
her bills, she continues to overspend.
No longer able to refute (* THE TRUTH THAT SHE'D DODGED *) for so long,
Natasha hurled her remote control at him and then kicked him out of her
house.
Those who eventually (* FACE UP TO whatever they've been DENYING ...*)
"You can't (* LET GO OF *) something until you've (* HELD ON TO *) it for a
while and recognized what its presence has meant," says social worker Marc
Sadoff.
In some cases, self-help groups, in which individuals are (* CONFRONTED BY
THE PERCEPTIONS *) of others, work best, according to John Key, director of
Pasadena's Center Against Abusive Behavior.
Once the initial (* DENIAL HAS BEEN CONFRONTED *), ...
The program forced her to (* CONFRONT WHAT SHE WAS DOING AND WHY *): ...
Sixteen years later, Linda still attends weekly meetings. Seeing other members
(* STRUGGLE TO CONFRONT THEIR DENIAL *) helps keep her in touch with her own.
The sooner, of course, that individuals (* CONFRONT WHATEVER REALITY THEY'RE
TRYING TO HIDE FROM *), ...
Moreover, the Republicans have reason to worry that (* PRESIDENT BUSH
WILL HAVE TO CONFRONT *) accelerating domestic and internatinal problems ...
Invested in believing he was sincere, Jamie refused to see the pattern. "I
started avoiding my friends. I couldn't really (* FACE WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO ME
*), ...
That's when Jamie finally realized she'd been trying to delude herself into
thinking that everything would be all right. She left the next morning, (*
BRUISED [N.B.: could be physically or mentally] *) but (* BUTTRESSED BY HER
RESOLVE *) to quit the denial and (* FACE THE TRUTH.*)
"If someone comes to you KNOWING you have a direct line to your spouse, the
boss, tell him or her that you don't talk business at home," advises Katy
Danco. "Tell your colleague to talk directly to your spouse. Otherwise,
you'll be caught in the middle, with (* RESENTMENT ON BOTH SIDES.*)"
I abhor censorship. It insults my intelligence, erodes my personal
independence, and (* LIMITS MY ACCESS TO IDEAS AND INFORMATION.*)
For example, those people who (* ADHERE TO A STRICT BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION
*) of the origins of life may object to the teaching of the concept of
evolution in high school biology courses.
Furthermore, learning to play this type of game helps one develop skills such
as flexibility and an (* ORIENTATION TOWARD *) independent achievement.
When my son Matthew taught me the game, I completely (* MISSED *) the aspect
of spatial integration. I treated the mazes as if they were independent,
unaware that they were linked in the third dimension through stairs. I even (*
MISSED *) the connections between mazes on the same level and did not realize
that to leave a maze by the same door by which I entered was to go backward to
an earlier maze instead of advancing to a new one.
