our words, sentences, speeches, beliefs, sources, ambitions ??
the crisis of psychology, (i read this morning) perhaps deliberately?, is
a refracted light illuminating the crisis of history,
the crisis of subjectivity,
the crisis of knowledge... the assumption of knowing... and the
sensual/somatic assaults,
the impact of catastrophic materialities, these
that demand from some of us less than words, and something more akin to a
simple line, drawn across the image we've been building upon, each of us,
in our mindful worlds, building a house of reality, adding rooms,
preserving our beliefs and in costume only venturing to other worlds,
houses, other realities - the worlds of others, here, harkens something
more than this.
i'd ask judith, here, to please offer some words...? where, when, how is
the other ? i am feeling something "other" and it pulls me into
silences... because i don't fully understand these questions of when,
where, how, ... and still it seems important, doesn't' it?

Great thoughts! remember the song:
people who need people are the luckiest people in the world!

"Waves of hands, hesitations at street corners, someone dropping a
cigarette in a gutter - all are stories. But which is the true story? That
I do not know. Hence I keep my phrases hung like clothes in a cupboard,
waiting for someone to wear them. Thus waiting, thus speculating, making
this note and then another, I do not cling to life."
Virginia Woolf, The Waves, 1931.
