RE: Crossing Streams

in #philosophy7 years ago (edited)

I like to argue in the walking world with a whole range of people but mostly, with people that are more highly skilled than myself. The ones that are able to pull apart my position and explain why or why not an alternative should be considered. As hard as it is to find out I am wrong, it is my responsibility to do so and, it is on me at that point to shift or ignore.

You and I are very similar in this respect. I feel that I am something of a perpetual student. I am always trying to learn, and understand, the world around me.

Most of the time, I don't understand the things that are going on around me, so I am forced to accept that those are the realities and there is nothing that I can do about it. However, I believe in cause and effect (or more scientifically stated, stimulus - response). But I still always want to know the "why".

I feel that only by understanding where something came from can you understand why it has come to be the way it is.

Thanks for another one of your (always) thought-provoking posts!

And if you can connect a few of these streams together, you can see where some ideas are likely to go. Many put their head down into a specialisation and miss the bigger picture.
