RE: Illusions, delusions and self-learning

in #thoughts7 years ago

This is a very insightful and astute synopsis of steem as I see it through your seasoned perspective. As a noob here that is evolving organically within the ecosystem I can only say I also find this universe unto itself to be challenging, rewarding, and most of all inspiring. The depth of the inspiration is too vast a concept to attempt to describe, but I certainly have a sense of purpose in my participation here that is bigger than any personal aspirations.

I believe the core of what you’re elucidating is the level of engagement taking place on this platform and the wide range of potential these broad channels of communication represent are simply staggering and impossible to fathom.This is an exciting premise, and given the fundamentals or foundations of transparency which this community thrives on it is easy to see the revolutionary concept of a hive-mind governance forming into something beautiful.

I’m astonished I’m the first one to comment on this post, but alas, as you stated learning requires an acceptance of ones inferiority or limited perspective and this is a difficult concept for the ego to navigate gracefully.

I think this is why those that are really pushing have little trouble continuing (they do question their sanity often though) because meaning and purpose drive them.

Ther is a massive amount of potential and these are the days we are able to define what it could become. Those who participate have a say, those who don't lose their voice.

People have already read a lot from me today, I tend to be wordy :D Also, Sundays are generally quiet so it is a good time to reflect a little.

Very true on the reflection aspect. I appreciate you using some of your words to reply to me. It's freshly Monday for me and I'm chomping at the bit here, sleepless and eager to take as much in as I can. It's nice knowing there exists a place where people will actually read, review, and revise before engaging. Keep up the wordiness haha.

I think the same which is why I have to behave and support decent interaction. The other social platforms are full of nonsense and I don't want all of this place to become the same. There is space for it but the value is in the real discussions I think.

Well said as always, I just read your post about your writing process and find it to be spot on with my very free nonjudgmental approach. All the way down to the asking my wife for some moments to do "steem" work lol.
