how can i start a post worth reading?
what exactly do i want to accomplish?

i just want to share, like a child in front of the classroom, only this time, i'm prepared. ever wonder about the physical reality-- i mean the one transcendent of your perceptions? sure, great. a big "so what (now)" might immediately assault our intensional ignorance of the situation. it's not one that's remediable. the even more limited fact-of-the-matter is that i am probably departing from our common knowledge-base to make my ideas intelligible. still, i'll give it a shot because i'm not pretentious enough to distrust your ability to infer and contextually glean my meanings. the complete description of the whole modeled-event would include my ineptitude with communicating complex ideas. far too often in my philosophical career have i heard echoed "great ideas, awkward language." with all that in mind, let's take an excursion into the abstract connections of physics, metaphysics, and conceptions.

principles of mathematics. history of western philosophy. on being and nothingness. conceptual development of quantum mechanics. the god delusion. are all titles of books on my queue. so, for sure, i'm without certain experiences given to describe specific feelings about truth, but this is just something i do for my own satisfaction. i merely imagine someone eventually enjoying their encounter with this (and other) writing(s).

let's go:

sitting on the second floor of a townhouse-style shopping center in a two-bedroom intimately coupled dwelling above a barber and realtor, i take breaths of the moist new england aire. i loathe the simple superiority complex of the region. i know ignorance built these walls, and ignorance occupies my time. the method and meaning of mathematics is to develop the language of objects, references, and interactions. so they say that one could develop a model (given the time) to put all of these objects in motion, and suspiciously i'm lead to a godhead experience transcending my intimate experiences of sense-perceptions. this delusion of grandeur is quite convincing. if there is a description, there must be an interlocutor to describe it for all time. quite surreal it seems when the concept leads us to this, but if you bring it back before there were objects to describe you infer a creator. so it appears, at least to my faculties, to be the search for the universal self, connected throughout space and time, within the cause and effect paradigm. it's the universal identity that technically should afford such a description, and yet, it is a catastrophic error of inference. consciousness cannot protect us from the mathematical contradiction of initial cause all the way back from my shoddy apartment seated in front of a parking lot view. who knew it would lead to this? who knew that planet Earth would subsist and evolve, all-the-while continually revolve in an even grander structure interacting with others all stemming from nothing more than the oblique reality we call space and time? no one and nothing. meaning is an invention deriving from the conscious description of the system that is. isn't it? who knows? no one and nothing. and that tends to be my natural departure. my arrival, i thought, was a realistic environment of ethical discourse and solutions to the universal puzzles, but i've been duped. and so have you, unless you already assume, that the no one really cares about the truth, nor the objective position that each should be afforded what inherently they warrant and not receive in excess that of which they are undeserving. we're just too young of a species, our collective intellect is still embattled with struggling epiphanies over a timeless vision of how to survive, keep order, and thrive justified solely on the basis of personal freedom scaled by the utilitarian value of the dollar, the euro, the yen, and other recognized currency. well, you might ask, then what else? what more can we do as a blossoming youth of modernity? who knows? no one and nothing.
