On the other hand, almost anyone can be coaxed to take a treat, if the handler is stern but forgiving. Before the war, there were many therapeutic formulas available. These days the anger is more palpable. Nonetheless, generosity cannot be hurried, even for the protozoically inclined. It takes time and a musical ear to launch its eponymous journey on the Mobius track of give and take. To get on board, you must attend with eyes closed and mind open to the ambient levels of pleasure and pain.
