I just recently went through a very...somethingish transition. It was like, you know when you're tripping or in a dream where you wake up into another dream or stage of the hallucination but you always think you are waking up into a clearer conciousness? well I feel like i just got all the way out of the dream. Most of my life i've been struggling to make sense of all the things i see in the world and only now do I feel like I understand what's going on. I no longer feel the need to seek out some other person to put things in a proper context for me because i feel like i've finally grasped what it takes to just understand. I could type about this new paradigm i'm in for pages but i'll just say that I'm finally at the beginning of what i've been scrambling for all these years through articles, lectures, books, conversations, music, movies, etc. <br /><br />I was always afraid that my life wouldn't be long enough to get to this point. hahAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08252584636527126963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4569014679330419359.post-57444704171699011992011-12-10T02:25:15.091-08:002011-12-10T02:25:15.091-08:00almost a year ago, i said that once i get through ...almost a year ago, i said that once i get through some random 6 to 8 part lecture from some audio blog you recommended me, I would report back with something useful to say. I kept to my word. I never finished so I never said anything. Not that I was trying to make a point with that last comment, but point being, I have a hard time finding focus enough to pursue the goal of coming up with interesting questions and then looking for the answers to them. For me, and I'm sure billions like me, I get caught up in daily bullshit that's infinitely less interesting and at the end of the day, opt to surf porn than pursue meaningful philosophical quests. It seems like you've been doing the opposite. A cogent outlook on the whole of humanity and society is rare, at least without some transparent political agenda behind it. If there's some way you can share an insight or basis or peek into that, it would be a rare privilege, and your toil would hold value beyond yourself. Whether this is the appropriate forum for that or not (I find it hard to imagine facebook or twatter or any ingenious/socially isolating internet medium being an adequate substitute for real interaction, but we have to work within our constraints i guess, huh?), I think the effort is a selfless amd important one, and one that commands too little respect. Its not that no one cares, i think there's a saturation of distraction, be it mindless entertainment or pursuit of personal stability and attaining basic human needs. <br /><br />anyways, long story longer, it seems like you have something valuable to share, but haven't realized an outlet to do so. It seems like just having this blog to begin with is evidence that such an outlet is something you want, but haven't realized.<br /><br />I have no ideas or suggestions, but I do sincerely hope you find it. Keep in contact. <br /><br />-Taylor<br /><br />ultratot@yahoo.com or taylordavalos@gmail.comTaylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02332120959987011899noreply@blogger.com
