The Night I Missed the Colosseum Tickets
Life is a continuous competition among possible trances, and whichever trance recruits enough emotional energy temporarily becomes our reality. This is a story about forgetting something important because attention was occupied elsewhere. I had carefully planned my Colosseum visit, set reminders, and made sure I knew exactly when the tickets would be released. And yet, I forgot. What happened that night reminded me that even someone who studies hypnosis for a living is not immune to the power of attention, emotion, and trance.
