Oh if only we could have the certainty we crave...about anything. Lordy, that takes me right back to the "wonder" idea. I don't find certainty to exist in my own life except as the immediate precursor to acute disillusionment. But I "probe" continually, and try to accomodate the ever expanding bits and pieces of the puzzle of truth as they come. But none of them is ever the last piece. Perceiving eachother seems like that to me, that we get an idea of what is meant or intended, but given the shifting sands nature of perception, can never really experience the "exact" thing.

Still I come back too, to the idea that even while you express such a dilema, you so gracefully demonstrate exactly how to go about grappling with it; you go back and go back and go back, and do everything you can to clarify, get it across, understand. I don't know any other way. lol.

Such a good news bad news joke, bipolar.
