Replying to LO27318 --
We - and i would like to include all sentient beings - live a metaphorical
- sometimes even a rethorical - life and i'll be damned if it isn't
self-referential too. However, i assume that feelings (aka emotions) are
mental activities, like thoughts (aka ideas), rules and principles (aka
ordering) and actions (aka something with an u). Something a colour - like
green - evokes a feeling, a tought - a set of rules and actions: a(n)
eiou. Even when one is blind, there is meaning in colour, because every
mind can handle the metaphore. Some people, i've read, see colours
associated with music or letters. Some stop (an action) for a certain
colour. There is meaning in every eiou - just because we enact the
emotion.
There is no difference - in my opinion - in dimensions, or, to put the
message in other words, the dimensionality seems fractal, not a whole
number. Perhaps our eiou's are of a pink type: often small and unimportant
, a eiou, sometimes a big and important feeling, A EIOU and every now and
then a larger than life - ... . Perhaps they are white, evenly
distributed, important and unimportant ones; perhaps the are green, green
as grass, newly born, fresh; perhaps they are gray, dull, uninteresting
(is there a smallest uninteresting thought?); perhaps they are Brown,
agitated, confronting ieach other and leading to a random walk in fractal
dimensions.
I do know this: even the smallest / biggest feeling is nothing when not
enacted. Thak you for moving,
Jan
