Spontaneity
April 7th, 2008A well-known double bind is the request
Be spontaneous!
A friend of mine recently put a neat twist on it by wrapping it up in a question:
You are spontaneous, aren’t you?
The many facets of self-contradictory statements sure understand to entertain a (free) liar’s heart. I replied:
Of course, I am so much spontaneous that I am already spontaneously spontaneous.
