lulz~

Likewise, RS.

Because your quote is a nice contrast to the quote above it. Objection?

I actually stay logged in to most sites that I frequent. Although I do sometimes check in at strange hours if I either can't sleep (typically because of some obsessive interest that keeps me awake) or I accidently fell asleep earlier in the evening during a nap and then remain awake until early morning.

And by thursday I meant friday lol mb

I am having a bad day. but I might end up with a better night, if not I'll just sleep it off, and make a different tomorrow.

How are you, Radiant Shadow? You've been coming to mind often lately.

That's where I got it from. It's a wonderful read.

P.s. I miss you and your exquisite thoughts.

thanks for the thumbs. i've been wanting to catch up on your blog; i know you've been writing in it much more than usual.

i hope all's well

Your description helped to clear up some confusion I had. I'd always assumed on some level that as you said "life experience, genes, and ongoing neurological development" were important in understanding intelligence because it wouldn't make sense to understand it in a vacuum of numbers.

Good, thanks. I can understand it much better now.

thank you but what I was getting at is that how do you measure innate ability if someone's ability is not always evident in the early stages. Is it testing someone's actual vs. potential iQ?

Surely, you've had at least one teacher that you really liked. I had a few teachers that I really admired, the rest were pleasant and easy to get along with, and only one that I really loathed and despised.

What sort of conflicts are you experiencing and what appeals to you most about Pirsig's writings?

I haven't read his books, but I've seen his first book recommended on numerous occasions. As far as I'm aware, his work is generally well regarded.

Dialectical monism has been iterated upon throughout the history of philosophy in numerous, varied forms in both the East and the West.

From Anaximander positing the apeiron (boundless; infinite) as the cosmological constant/origin from which all opposites emerged from and returned to, to the unity of opposites proposed by the 'obscure' and the 'weeping' Heraclitus, the Absolute idealism of the German philosopher G. W. F. Hegel, and even to quantum physics when Niels Bohr proposed the complementarity principle of interpretation. Bohr also adopted the taijitu for his coat of arms when he was knighted by the Danish government with the Latin motto: contraria sunt complementa (opposites are complementary).

Hi~
I figured you to be a 3 or 4. I myself am a 2. In other words, I "look, but don't touch" lol.
What sparked this admittance?

put it in book form and sell!!! It's really concise.

Thank you. That's significant to me and I appreciate the thought.

Yeah, ENFJ is the other can I've been kicking around. I decided because ENFP fits me based on what I know of myself and the theory, but as time goes on, I'm beginning to see the pitfalls of trying to type yourself the further down the rabbit hole you go. It's like attempting to psychoanalyze yourself. You're juggling data and meta-thinking while completely missing out on your blindspots.

Either way, I'm not in this anymore to discover myself, so my type is irrelevant apart from an opportunity to discuss the theory and play in the sandbox a little. I'm completely open to opinions if people want to give them.
