Atto, I think of a circle ⭕️ then I imagine I’m walking around the circle, starting from a random point and then I keep moving around until I end up at the point from where I started. On the way round the circle it can feel like I’m going round a corner in my quest to complete the loop.

Another way a circle ⭕️ can have a corner is if the circle is made of something malleable like play dough for example. The circle can simply be moulded into a square without ever having to add anything to the original existing circle.

I see consciousness as being an infinite loop that can shapeshift into many other shapes and forms. Including corners.

I could post lots of examples illustrating how circles can form even triangles. But we can’t post images anymore, posting pictures has been thwarted on this site, shame really because pictures and images can tell multitudes of stories, oh well never mind.

Imagination is always a good substitute for the real maccoy I guess.

I decline the gift, but it's the thought that counts, right?
It’s okay Walker, all unwanted, unreceived gifts will be returned to sender.

Would you like to be the recipient of a billion dollars, would you decline that gift, or should I just keep it all to myself?

Just a 💭?

So you are not going to provide a definition of a CORNER and of a CIRCLE?

Here you go then…

A circle: ⭕️

A corner: L

Since I’m visiting, while I’m here, I’ll just drop this off for Walker….
