Subject: All Things--who wants to start?

After watching last night, this episode finally made sense. I know that discussions in the past dealt with Scully's choices, religion, the "what if" and the big "did M and S do the wild thing?" What I wasn't able to do was to tie in the title with everything else. I also got the wierd feeling that both Scully and GA were trying to tell us that they needed to slow down--put things into perspective and be happy with their own choices. I also have decided that Mulder had to be her "guardian angel." Even though she saw a woman in the hat and jacket who kept her from the car accident and led her to her "revelationary vision", it was Mulder who was able to somehow subconsciously protect and lead her to the conclusion that Daniel wasn't meant for her. I think that she has always felt she needed to scientifically explain unusual and as a result, failed to realize how open she was to accept the unordinary things that Mulder was always looking into. When she saw that the alternative treatment for Daniel had a chance to work, I think she was able to look at him with open eyes--not her heart--and see him for what he was. I think it also opened her eyes to how she felt about Mulder. She dertainly treated him much nicer at the end than at the beginning! Did they do the 'wild thing"--I still don't thinkso--not in this episode--obviously later!?
I thought it was cool at the end when she seemed to realize that everything in our lives must be contributing to where we are and to where we might be going.
