I do like understanding what's behind whatever symptoms I'm having.
Understanding tends to give me a sense of control, although I
recognize that it is a false sense of control.  If an explanation of
what's going on really provided security, then I would feel secure
contemplating the law of gravity while a canoe I'm paddling is being
carried over the edge of a waterfall.
