I understand where you're coming...Hey darling.<br /><br />I understand where you're coming from now.<br /><br />And yes, taking responsibility for yourself is the harder, more rocky path to follow. <br /><br />As someone who really wanted Prince Charming to rescue her, whose bad decisions were always excused by circumstances...I get that.<br /><br />I work towards being self-reliant. To expecting nothing from anyone, to be grateful for the Life I lead. So far, I've been the only person I've been disappointed by.<br /><br />And that's easier. It's simpler. It's down to me to make things good, bad or indifferent. I think, it's been an exercise in freedom.Roseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469442580348062913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3590826720829183744.post-29119174206322538922012-09-03T23:29:42.613+01:002012-09-03T23:29:42.613+01:00The SEP may be a source, if you like to drill more...The SEP may be a source, if you like to drill more into philosophy.<br />http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/logic-ontology/#Ont<br /><br />SOrry, I'm too tired to link this correctly now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3590826720829183744.post-18235707200722517412012-09-03T23:21:25.927+01:002012-09-03T23:21:25.927+01:00Nothing esoteric about this: Jon explained what I ...Nothing esoteric about this: Jon explained what I understand as the end of ontological thinking, the result if you like. "It" "is". <i>Ontologie</i>, I just use the German name because I have an idea (yeah, nail me on this) what it is and am not sure whether the English word would fit, is the <i>Lehre vom Seienden, von dem was ist</i> - thinking about all this and trying to understand what is may have an influence on the person who thinks, may change the idea of world, life and all the rest.<br />As I understand it it puts a lot more responsibility on the single being, for choosing "things", for expecting "things", for being self. It makes things not easier, but forces the being, the human, to make decisions, to reflect the decisions and the self ... can be a bit of a purgatory. <br />"things" mostly means other humans' deeds, expectations of these and so on - it all comes back to the questions about what we can hope for and what we can expect [from other humans - and hence from ourselves - we are always the other]: Again, nothing esoteric, but simple hardcore western philsosophy.<br />Here the words escape me, I can not express it in this language, it's difficult enough in my native one. <br />After all I think it sums up to something like "Man muss 'Dingen' erlauben zu geschehen, man muss es zulassen" - but this is my very personal "result" and there is no "muss".<br />Sorry for blabbing nonsense.

Very close to the philosophy of Byron Katie...who I adore, but sometimes find a bit inaccessible.<br /><br />But I really like your perspective, and it's given me a pause, which I always appreciate. <br /><br />And honey, this is a place where everyone is free to air their thinking. I know you're not preaching or trying to convert. It's great you've shared...<br /><br />xxxRoseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469442580348062913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3590826720829183744.post-43362535376101782472012-08-31T02:50:58.623+01:002012-08-31T02:50:58.623+01:00Hi Roses,
My idea about love follows somewhat a s...Hi Roses,<br /><br />My idea about love follows somewhat a similar path as Herr Mag. I like to consider love as a intransitive verb which means love has no object. <i>I love</i>. Period. But I go even further as to say that love has no subject either. "I" connot love "you". Love is. That's it and that's all. It doesn't need us to exist. We can only choose to live in it or not. And from that point, love becomes what we want it to be, filtered through our beliefs.<br /><br />I know it may sound too esoteric and I'm preaching the gospel according to me-myself-and-I. I don't pretend owning the thruth in that matter and I'm not trying to convert anyone either. ;)<br /><br />Hugs<br />JonJon DeepBluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098174175428514740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3590826720829183744.post-80226226987651046322012-08-29T22:44:52.371+01:002012-08-29T22:44:52.371+01:00Hey gorgeous!

BTW I'd love MsScarlet even more without the help of a canopener ... <br />All I can say seriously about what we call "love" is that love is. This may come over a bit very simplistic, but it's the end of all ontological thinking about such truths like justice, love and for fuck's sake <i>Erkenntnis</i>. It is.<br />Anything else is what we do.<br /><br />Nobody saied that philosophy would actually "help".
