after a long absence

This is indeed "Notes Toward", variously, and although not hidden perhaps not so obvious to, say, fellow users of LiveJournal. I am voyaging toward another version of "A Different View", though I suspect not with the same title. If not, the reason won't quite be superstitious; more along the order that I don't want my thoughts to go along that same line, where I began hinting at things rather than attempting to navigate clearly toward them. So to speak. This is a good stage too for pondering what to publish in other blogs. Form of backup too for that matter I suppose. Interesting once again learning the rules of a group, in this case in a venue where I haven't found them clearly stated; evidently it's time to try, although I realize one of my probable errors. I didn't take something literally. However, what with the changes engendered by the passage of time (and a specific span at that), I find myself oddly unembarrassed. Pity I couldn't have shed some of that baggage earlier; a form of Calvinism quite close to what we know as Puritanism if it's even mentioned today (maybe it's attained the same status as disease-ridden blankets given as gifts to the indigenous inhabitants of 'our' fair land) combined with a military family gave me an inability through most of my life to do anything without constant doubts and mitigations. That too may have lain in the way of an exploration of a concept-centered modal philosophy in terms much more likely to withstand translation into a linear medium. This is being done in this dense and undifferentiated fashion to deliberately discourage a certain kind of reader, while leaving a record probably necessary. Probable that I am classifiable as a multiple personality though no names between. Different perspectives, methods of conceptualization. Main split two, the one which was formed by disallowing certain routines and then focusing true consciousness on nonphysical experience (and nonverbal automatically), thus the difficult assimilation over last three months. --G
