Ice burg! Straight ahead!

       I really liked how the layers of consciousness was compared to an ice burg. It made it an easy visual to think about how the layers of our mind, according to Freud are laid out.  If you think about it, it makes a lot of since. I believe that a person is only aware of a small portion of themselves; they only know the top of the ice burg. As the ice burg gets deeper and deeper into the water, it becomes bigger and wider. I believe that out pre-conscious and our unconscious are so much larger than what we would assume. Think about it. More often than not we don't know what we think or dream things, and too often we don't know why we mixed up two words, or said or did something we didn't mean. Our layers of consciousness really are like an ice burg. The deeper you travel, the wider, bigger, and more complicated it gets.
