Metaphors can be so powerful in helping us to see things we wouldn't normally see. The danger is that sometimes we mistake the metaphor for the thing itself. Not likely in this case but sometimes it happens...like when we describe the mind as being like a computer. Laura,

You have such a great way of putting things in a perspective that I have never heard before and that gives me a greater understanding of an ADD Mind. Thanks Again, Laura Jeff,
