Do you remember how you felt during that embarrassing incident as a child? Or is the memory so painful that you unconsciously filed the embarrassment and other feelings associated with the incident in ‘the nowhere box’?

Can you still feel the boredom you felt staring out of the window at school? Did you focus on feeling it, more consciously, later? Or have you filed it in the nowhere box?

Do you remember how terrified you were when you had that nightmare as a child? Did a parent listen to the feelings you felt while keeping you safe or did they help you suppress awareness of them by ignoring or distracting you? Don’t worry. They are still there. They are in the nowhere box.

Do you remember just how furious you were that time when someone who should have known better accused you of committing some trivial childhood ‘offence’? Or did their violent reaction to your initial outburst cause you to shut it down? Don’t worry. The anger is all still there in the nowhere box.

Do you remember how painful it felt when that first girl/boy you fell for didn’t reciprocate? Not really? Don’t worry, it is still there. It’s stored in the nowhere box.

I know someone who was bell monitor during year 8 at school. On 14 occasions throughout the day for an entire school year, he was required to interrupt his lesson, walk to the school office and ring the bell to end one class and start the next. He has never been on time for a social event since for the simple reason that his unexpressed fury at endlessly interrupting what he was doing so that he could do what he was required to do by the school has been suppressed by his fear and now manifests, powerlessly, in being late for virtually everything. All this fear and anger is now in the nowhere box but he doesn’t realize it has been shaping his behaviour ever since.

The most interesting thing about human beings is that they have no idea why they behave the way they do.

And if you tell them that, for most of the time, they are doing what their unconscious fear makes them do, such as attend school, work at a job they hate, or simply comply with an endless series of government regulations and laws, they think you are crazy.Remember the Covid-19 lockdowns? The ‘mandatory’ injections? How many people objected? How many people attended a protest? How many people actually resisted?

The idea that they are not acting out of their own volition just doesn’t make sense to most people. After all, they have spent most of their life choosing their study, their forms of entertainment, their job, their spouse, their place of residence and their holiday destinations. They just didn’t make the most fundamental choices but they don’t even know what these are any more. Life has been reduced to the mundane and the trivial.
