oh yeah? what interests? into what did they desolve or evolve?
how old are you, r.i.t.?
in reciprocative ambiguity coupled with sincere synergy, she thanks him....

i'm 25. about to turn 26 in May.
good point. they did resolve into more linear thinking, because of changing relationships and circumstances.
i'm trying (tried?) very hard to get grounded and pragmatic. i can't ever go half-way on things, so that meant a leap into pragmaticsm through and through. it's funny. i can see someone such as yourself or Thorn write a magnificent free-associative meditation on (let's say) the interconnectedness of things, and feel a twinge of the familiar get re-awoken, but yet i still feel like it's something alien to me now.

Thorn and i have had raging post-exhanges on religion, the nature of god, the universe... all of which i hold dear. But something's changed.

i'm fascinated....tell me more... and i know this is not exactly a pragmatic question, but how do you FEEL about this change? is it a good thing? do you feel more at peace with the world? more excited about it? like you have more control over it?

yes yes! i do feel more at peace with the world, and more excited. and that i have more control over it. i guess it reflects a change in perspective that i seem to need at the moment. to summarize the differences with a convenient example, last year at this time i was reading nothing but weighty allegorical readings of the bible and William Blake's poetry. I was literally obsessed with it. now i can't seem to get enough of military theory/ history. i swapped right brain thinking for left brain thinking.  |

hm, I was just about to ask you "what's changed?", but you've answered quite succinctly, there. Keep up the flip-floppin / good for mental circuitry  |
