What is being oneself? In most cases I am not meaning the specific individual who is responding in a sociological fashion to the experience of reading (determined by the self-consciousness of the reading to note vs. the actual reading at this moment); I would be meaning that part of it as a kind of Mode of living; but philosophically It Is the Mode of experience for the social faith you hold in projecting future determiantions of possibility vs. possibilities for One's situation in the medical, entertainment, arbitrary state of respectable human reality (we used to say 'social' reality; that is history), or Job.

Heck, does one in an appropriate mode of experience NEED God to find a Job?

Really!

Only an equally CRUEL "deputy" believing that hardship must prevail at all cost!

Default Well the difficulty of the smiley.

was ambiguous. I was only. dear. trying to present the case for ambitious stenographers. That surely is not a Mode of living. So the issue of being appropriate in the world of decision and compassion is complicated.

My nose wasn't cute enough. I guess. I trust.

Step 1: Go find coffee.
Step 2: Sit down and drink coffee
Step 3: Get more coffee
Step 4: Drink more coffee
Step 5: Rewrite OP so that it doesn't sound like you're smoking something illegal

I also can't make any sense out of the OP and I'm not sure what you're really asking. Maybe you could clarify your statement. Thanks.

No, I'm not drinking coffee; I'm drinking tea. Green tea, mind you. So there is this other realm of the possible in itself; and that solves the problem of Difference applied to Philosophy; not Faucault's or Schlesinger's sociology. You know that the ultimate universe was human reality or at least the one at concern at a meeting of the Iron workers of America; we've yet got to avoid that one.

Or we can go concern ourselves with that Cooper guy on the Death of the Family. But he's really in these days; maybe the latter part of Clinton and early part of Bush. ...

I give up. I don't think you're from this planet. It sounds like you ate a bunch of philosophical blogs and then had a tummy ache and threw them back up in this thread.

An excellent way of putting it
(Whew...I'm relieved nobody can understand it either...was worried it was just me early this morning wondering whether it was my brain that was scrambled rather than my eggs)
