Prediction
One of these days, when all the various bloggers are done ruminating, we're going to simultaneously hoist ourselves up to another plateau ripe for exploration.
Then we can compare notes.

Wait a minute...I'm supposed to be ruminating? And then I have to hoist myself up to another plateau? Nobody told me that there'd be work involved. I mean, I can barely dress myself in the morning.
Giggle. For you, I'll build a ladder. Or a lift.
I think we have to practice coordinating our rumination, or we're going to end up on different plateaus :)
I was referring to some level of transcendent insight. I'm more than satisfied with this medium of communication, as far as concrete mediums go.
... perhaps we will one day realize, "Holyshit! How could we have thought so little of the world!"
That will be a party, my blogging friend!
Gar-
I completely agree. A world this overwhelming cannot be merely a stage for our moral dramas.
Stevie Wan,
Your party sounds exactly what I need to lift me out of this slump.
Actually, I'm hoping to remain individual. What is the Empaths Guild? The 7 of 9? I am (we are)the product of years of isolation, before the gates of the internet opened unto me (us) and revealed its myriad paths and entanglements.
I think, or hope, that an ever-expanding group will surge upwards (onwards? inwards?) rather than plummeting downwards,or flailing about right here. The internet is filled with a pregnant silence, or so I would like to believe.
Oh, 7 of 9. I know who she is. Don't know why it didn't click. I thought you were referring to a group of some sort. The hive goes around assimilating people. I didn't mean like that!:)
"A world this overwhelming cannot be merely a stage for our moral dramas."
That is what it took for me to become interested in this thread. Not that it wasn't interestin', I just didn't get it. Perhaps we underestimate the importance of our "moral dramas". No, that couldn't be it. On the contrary, we take ourselves too seriously. To quote Led Zeppelin, "Ooh, it makes me wonder."
"we take ourselves too seriously"
Amen, Brother Brendar.
Steve-
Bagels, yes. Master structure, hmmm. I have met that approach before. It's dangerous to have a structure, and fill in the holes with information, because you start to look for hole-shaped information.
I tend to get carried away with that transcendent stuff. I just find that information, or realization, changes one. It's quite worthless in one's back pocket, although it manages to exert some force of change on the bearer (by way of radiation?) even there. Wiser and bigger, you said it yourself. Silly me.
Is blogging so random? I don't think so always. Ahhh. I just felt the stirrings of a new post.
festinog-
Okay, a grain of salt might be called for during consumption of this post, but I was taking you as seriously as I took myself. Do I get to slap you, then?
