The purpose of this journal is to share questions, humor, miscellaneous creative content, and raw reflections on personal empowerment and consciousness. My goals are to deepen my experiential understanding of these topics, improve my communication skills, have fun, and help others see things in a new light.

Enjoyed!

A reminder to allow ourselves to get bored every once in a while - to shut off every distraction for a while.

I'd suggest that language is what makes the existence of "symbol" possible in the first place. It's a kind of context.

Classic stage-magenta blunder.

Sort of, yes. You'll see the world in a way that reinforces the model.

Stay on topic, guys.

It may involve aspects of that principle, but it goes far deeper, not stopping at the social pretension of honesty. It's as if everyone on Earth were on Veritaserum all the time - well, sort of; that's just a caricature. Nice pipe dream, though. Would make a great novel or something.

I do recommend voting, though. That would likely require paying some attention to the broader political climate of your country, I imagine. You don't want to vote for a wannabe dictator or a compulsive liar out of sheer ignorance of their character, even if that judgment is based mostly on intuition or feeling rather than on accumulated factual knowledge or information.

Yeah, I call BS on that.
