&npsb;&npsb; In the classic movie The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy and her companions finally reach the end of their journey. The little dog Toto grabs the curtain with his teeth and pulls it back. There's the Wizard, frantically operating a host of levers and machines to create the illusion of awesome power and invulnerability. As they look at the Wizard, where is their fear? It evaporates as they see it's all a big drama, a big fake, with no real power to harm them. Likewise can we pull the curtain back from our own confusions and understand what's really going on.
