Guest guest Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 The truth is, I can not tell you the answer to your question to me. I can tell you, though man might not be sure he can know what the truth is (in its totality) he can know that there is the truth. For there can be no truth that there is no truth. As for what I tell you, or you tell me, yes these tellings are always stories we are telling each other. I tell you the story about what I believe to be true, and you in turn might tell me the story of what you believe to be true. How much fiction we put into our tales, only we know for sure.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 Hmmm, I am thinking of the person who goes through his/her life with nothing to say, only questions to ask. I note that you aren't asking any question here, are you? This might be cleverness revealed.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 PK So, I am confused about your need behind asking me. Is there something in this that triggered you? steve Re: Greetings...

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 I concluded from your post that you had concluded that my position as asserted was a limiting position. Maybe my position is limiting, maybe it is liberating. (What's the truth there?) I don't know but it would seem that concluding that my position is limited... limits you. It might also have had a limiting effect on others that saw your conclusion. And who knows what limits it might through around myself in future attempts to share my thoughts with others.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 Yes it is. You know you have been provocative if someone is provoked. Funny memory... a long time ago on a date, my date related to me that I was boring. I was not conversing with her in a entertaining way. I said to here, " Well, then provoke me. " That only served to provoke her, and not in a positive way.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 I am tickled by your tease. Really, I think I could have employed a few more different words than make " conclude " , " limit " , and " position " do all the work. But then I am a poet, and this sort of thing happens with me.

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 I don't think all of that is true. I reject that you intellect is as a fern in its capasity.
