1.       Why do we do fine when people aren’t looking, but if we ask them to watch, we mess up?

7.       If you close your eyes, is it harder to smell, hear and taste?  If you listen to loud music that drowns everything out is it harder to concentrate on something or smell or taste something?  Is that in your head or real?

9.       How do you know that something you’ve been doing all your life isn’t wrong?
