In preparation for the phone call tomorrow (11-22( I reviewed all the posts in the course so far. I really appreciate the depth of thinking and experience that is being expressed. At the same time, it would be great if we had more people taking part and sharing their experience.
I expect to have more to say about this tomorrow.

Perhaps this week’s reading helps to explain why it is hard to feel confident in the posts and comments we make. Either we make analytical observations such as this one (which suffer from being relatively unrelated to the inner being of our lives as we live them), or we report our personal experiences (which tend to be so personal that they may not immediately strike others as helping them better understand their experiences). Perhaps we are seeing in action the split between an active subjective realm and passive objective realm which the reading observes–as well as how this split devalues both of these incomplete components of knowledge. — Michael
