What view is better? The one in 1st place or the one in the 2nd place?

anne artist said...

depends on your point of view.......

Sara said...

Oh...good point. Then the answer would be a "probably yes".

anne artist said...

can there be a first without there being a second, and if so, can the first exist without awareness of the second?

Ignorance...so many mistakes it makes us to do, so many things it makes us to believe, ask and do.
I don't trust ignorance, I hate it.

anne artist said...

how would you describe ignorance?

Sara said...

Hard.........ignorance is, for me, like a dark veil in our heads. Something that prevents us to see beyond the greatness of nature and makes us to believe there's nothing else than what we have around ourselves.
Ignorance is a limit, a mean one.

anne artist said...

yes, i would agree with that.

i wonder if ignorance is believing i Know.

or if it is not realizing that i can learn and unlearn and discover and forget and rediscover.

Sara said...

I think ignorance makes us to believe whatever. That is, maybe, the harder thing to acept; I guess.

anne artist said...

and maybe i am too ignorant to get that i am ignorant....

Sara said...

I've seen thouse cases. People that believe they know too much or just enough when they are used to take thoughts from others.

anne artist said...

taking thoughts from others......now that is something to consider.

Sara said...

How would you consider it?

anne artist said...

there is taking thoughts from others.....and that reminds me of the valuing conversation.....someone taking something from me.....

and then there is having thoughts and forgetting they are not mine.

Sara said...

Sounds dirty. Someone that doesn't think but how to steal...

anne artist said...

i mean so much information filters through our brains each day, i would think that there would be times when we could forget the origins of the thoughts.

Sara said...

Like trying to know universe's origin.

Some times I think we remember only what causes us an exceptional impretion about anything.

There are, sure, exceptions.

anne artist said...

i like that. "an exceptional interpretation". very cool.
