PHOTO BY DeWANE NO VII S M T W T F S (Editor's Note: This is another article in the Today's Psychology weekly series of especially written articles for McHenry County readers. The topic this week is "Thinking for Yourself".) Few of us ever think deeply about anything. It is much easier to be a con­ formist and blindly accept and believe what we are told than to have the courage and persistence/tp inquire for ourselves what is true. How easily we accept the beliefs of others whether from .teachers, priests or politicians. We are afraid of being alone so we obediently conform to a certain belief, religion or philosophy in order to feel like we are part of a group and so not alone. Unfortunately, this blind acceptance is never com­ plete. Inside we know that we are just accepting someone else's second hand knowledge and there is always the fear that someone may attack our beliefs and show us that they are false. In addition, we may attack others whose beliefs contradict ours because we feel that our beliefs are the only true and acceptable ones. There is therefore no security in beliefs. True security lies only in the willingness to see and un­ derstand what is true. Life is here to be experienced first hand not through the filter of someone else's con­ ceptualizations. In order to be a truly free individual one must have the courage and the curiosity to question and not just accept what one is told. To merely believe something is to block the process of inquiry and thus prevent the perception of the actual. The problem with planting u garden is getting rid of the excess. This is the time of year when every day I go around to our neighbors saying: "Take my garden- peas!" 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 ,16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 _ COUPON r-a 15th Anniversary Sale!
