An Ignorant Life
Hello. Thanks for coming by. I'm getting old, 85 as we begin, so I've got a lot to say. And I'll say it as I think and feel it. Lifelong, I've aspired to educate myself and others, and I'm not so sure how well I've done at that. In speaking of my life as an ignorant life, I'm recognizing that that doubt, that uncertainty, pervades all human action, everything a living creature does, everything that I've tried to do. I write to explore my ignorance, so to speak.
What's the point of doing that? Not a quick question. As things go along, we'll develop a response, doing it recursively, observing many repetitions performed with variatons that correct errors and omissions, revealing unexpected possibilities in thought and action. That's how education comes about.
