Originally I thought of discussing how the movie "Julie and Julia" had something to do with religious experience and apparently I lost time since it needed a more extensive thought process. Hence I simply thought of further describing what I intend to do in this journey towards a "philosophy of my own."
I confess that I dream of becoming an actual published writer and I do this in light of that. With so many things to say I vow to write only less than 500 words per post and come across a philosophical reality each time whose ramifications I will never fully grasp. And this is where the reader comes in: to make me grasp the ramification of my blog to your own reality. As Ego in Ratatouille has said: "serve me a bowl of perspective".
While we are at the theme of food with which I also employed with the last entry, "the first entry," (yes I love word play) I would like to use it again. Dishes are for the most part a combination of ingredients and their identity as pieces of culinary experience stem from the dynamic interaction of the many ingredients put into them. In my own "cooking of my own bowl of perspective" I would not like you, the reader to think of each blog as a dish in its own. Every blog is not intended to be a dynamic interaction of many ingredients that produce a holistic experience of philosophy. Rather, I would like you to treat each blog as an ingredient. That as I write and write and write and write and write, I may finally produce a philosophical experience from which you can partake of as you read and read and read and read and read.
The best image I can leave you is this. My mom just bought rosemary from the supermarket and she has discovered the wondrous possibilities of using just a single ingredient in almost EVERY DISH that she perceives it fitting. As I eat the food she serves, I experience all the possibilities in which rosemary can be used and the experience is both positive and negative. This is how I intend to construct this blog: in light of finding all the possibilities of my philosophy in life as I further get to know it in its continuous unfolding, I desire to express it as it reveals itself to me. Bare with me as I stumble across the possibilities of that which is essential.
