Well, it has been a while hasn’t it? New digs that I never have acknowledged, on substack now primarily (though you can also find me at danielgrey.io). I also am unsure who I am even sharing this with. It is why I have not been around much since, well, last year with my last epic, although ‘stretchy’ (that is how it feels when I re-read it) last post on Anthropocentric bias. What I mean is, who wants to read my ranting?
That is one of the reasons I am here I guess, to give this platform and the humans out there (or other intelligences) something hopefully interesting to read. In my mind, the way of interconceptualism, and what we can perceive of reality when utilizing its pragmatic philosophy, is incredibly interesting and valuable. It gets us closer to knowing ourselves while also knowing the realities we inhabit more intimately. This is how we achieve resonance, when we align with reality we tend to move through existence easier. This isn’t really magical or mystical, if you think about it, it makes sense. Working with the reality of a situation does make things go easier than fighting it. This of course doesn’t mean that working with reality is always fun or pleasant, but leaning into what we cannot change saves resources, shows wisdom, and allows for one to take advantage of possibilities otherwise out of reach to those focused on fighting against the current.
I have noticed that I have had some views here and there in the past few months. This is encouraging, but those are old posts. My travels have brought me very far- and much has evolved. Our understanding of the reality we inhabit will never be complete as I do not believe any one entity would be able to know everything. Every experience is subjective and unique- since so many have lived before us, and experienced before us- there is no possible way we can access that information. Thus there will always be incomplete understanding of everything.
Dr. Elena Rodriguez had spent seventeen years studying reality, but it wasn’t until she watched her daughter’s first piano recital that its architecture finally clicked into place.
