yes, ratbastid, you're right.
I don't see much evidence - well almost none - that most human beings are even able to draw the distinctions you've drawn here. Hence - "We're the tyrants," as you say.
However, what you describe is very similar in kind to the way I use words. And it also points to the same discipline required to live an authentic life.
In brief, you've carried the discussion forward from the exact point I left it. That's pretty amazing in itself.
Thanks for that. Perhaps there's a way to construct a procedure to continue drawing the crucial distinction between the map (words) and the territory (experience).
The secret is out: I use words "creatively"... the problem is - that can mean many different things to many people.
P.S. I posted this simultaneous to wb's post. I'll respond to that one as well soon.
