There's a concept in Theravedan Buddhism called papanca, which is typically translated as
"mental proliferation". From experience I would connect it to the Fixx, who sang that "one thing leads to
another", and that would be papanca. I actually saw the Fixx open for the Police at Sullivan Stadium in
1985. My friend's brother bought us beer and dropped us off at the gate. We hitched a ride back with some
guy who asked which way we were going, and my friend said "straight", to which our driver responded,
"oh no, you don't want to go straight, that means no drink, drugs or women! you just want to go forward."
All these years later I wish I had responded that my intention was to go straight forward.
