Why people do what they do.

[pljames]

 :)With all people the need a history of why they do what they do is neccessary. Whatever the reason rational or illrational (did I spell that right) a reason exists. The mind can be excdeedingly complex. Eventually with time some truth might come to light. pljames

pljames;  people do what they do
People , like all creatures are both voluntarily and involuntarily responsive/reactive to perceptions.
People can 'make' perceptions. By believing some of our images are real. Irrational beliefs make for dysfunctional behavior.
Crazy people do what they do, they too simply react to their unrecognized images as if empirical perceptions. We're all 'crazy', only differences is DEGREE, mild crazy is accepted as normal, even though it's not natural.
Sanity or psychological well being is one 'frame of reference' up from the 'frame of reference ' most people are currently functioning at. Humans are still evolving to that level. It's already available, we all had 'glimpses' of it.
