Re: Unmudling some good stuff |
hi george ...
thnx for your approach on the good stuff
...
being a greeny in our groupings
...
a question raised to my mind ...
regarding the words:
"It's enough to spent a minute reading the
following explanation of its intricacies to realize its inanity"
i thought: is George (et all) just working on
the verb reading and then turning out on some kind of realization?
isn't reading just a lineair process
...
could there be more working in the mind on
somebody manifestating himself than a lineair process?
what is the working core
mindset?
like to hear a pivoting perception ... i
think ...
...
with n.y. blessings ... G., A., et all fellow
xxx democraters
