For a change of pace, I’m going to lean a little heavier into the abstract philosophical stuff. I’ve skirted around the metaphysical and existential wormholes up till now because I didn’t want to get sucked down too deep.
Firstly, I must admit that I really enjoy getting lost down those wormholes sometimes, so that is one obvious reason for this thread. The other is that “We Need to Dig a Little Bit Deeper” is not deep enough sometimes.
For the sake of brevity, I can only delve so deeply into a subject and still remain connected to “The Real World”; or our everyday lives, which was and still is my goal for this blog.
It’s just that there are so many fascinating unanswered questions for us to explore and their usefulness for us may only be found via the journey. I plan to gallivant rather than meticulously map. Relish in the uncertainty, revel in the proliferating puzzles and in doing so, my hope is that those glorious, unexpected insights might present. themselves.

So as a disclaimer I will say:
I do not expect to resolve any of these brain busters; my hope is to look at some of the theories and enjoy the challenge of trying to unpack them. Since I find cold hard logic rigid and dull, I will be using a combination of rationale and whimsy. Epiphany can be achieved by both reasoning and playfulness; at least in my experience.
