Lying with a man as with a woman is a metaphor for lying to yourself, (perhaps the English resonance of lying is not coincidental!), for not facing the truth of your life and sharing it with others. If we are not honest with ourselves, we cannot be present…
…look through the make-up and clothes and dye and see a naked, shivering run-of-the-mill girl who’s trapped in her mind, trying to get out of a contradiction in itself. Beverly Sills, an opera singer, once said, “A happy woman is one who has no cares at all; a cheerful woman is one who has cares but doesn’t let them get her down.” I guess that’s why some people identify me as a pessimist and others consider me odd.

It is aware of itself and others, experiences playfulness, kindness, loyalty, or at least something analogous to that. But a dog cannot plan for its retirement, protest global warming, or give a really good Devar Torah. Most adults consider children’s understanding of the world to be limited mu…
