ONce again a post from xmca has sparked in me both feeling and emotion. The
feeling I have is of pursuing rigorous study of psychological phenomenon, the
emotion I have is that it is wonderful to have others in the world who are
interested in this same study; to distinguish and define these into separate
contexts is impossible and yet my feeling of wanting to pursue study IS
separate from my emotion of commonality. Theoretically I can give this
emotion to God and own my feeling but when engaged in active practice I must
admit that I often steal [sic. borrow?] that which isn't mine and engage in
rants of uninteligible babble. . . . reference my struggle with measurement
What is it that distincly separates human feeling from human emotion and then
from that, what is socio and what is individual?
From sunny and cold Minnesota,
eric
