You're using this forum, this sacred place, as an arena to post personal attacks.
I'm specifically responding to your actions, Bill. I'm not launching an attack at you out of nowhere. That's how it works when somebody does something rude, and then people complain about it. There's always a hope that it will matter and be heard. But it usually doesn't and isn't. And thus, you demonstrate the way so many in the world keep on doing what serves them regardless of others or logic.
When I heard it once said that philosophy is wisdom, I felt a little tug. You ever feel that? When a note just don’t sound right?
It’s like when your body feels something isn’t right. Precursor to the itch.
Like thoughts are a gatherin, organized physical activity, movement taking over at a non-cognitive level of consciousness, like sap rising to fruit.
Pick the fruit too soon, bitter but never forgotten. Pick the fruit too late, fertilizer. Pick the fruit just right, yummie. Sequences of three in the bones, Goldilocks. The artistic lightness of compassion, the wait of gold.
Philosophy is the ruthless pursuit of truth.
Wisdom is the matrimony of skillful means and compassion which results in appropriate expression of truth.
There is no such thing as a wrong note. – Art Tatum
The difference between the almost right word & the right word is really a large matter--it's the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning. – Another Great American
