Bert offers insight into the paradox we live with “the experiencer is the experience(d). While we are experiencing life, others, and the world, we are being experienced by life, others, and the world. We leave our imprint as we are imprinted in these mutual and reciprocal experiences.
Is it an ordinary day? More likely it is an extra-ordinary day. The extra is when we are able to experience each moment as it is, the present and transient now. Each experience is fluid and never returns fully even in retrospect. It becomes part of fictional person we are. Fictional and myth are parts of the reality we live, another paradox. Who we are is a character continuously being written and edited in the living and experiencing we encounter.

Thank You, Ivon 🙂
You are welcome Bert.
I really like the last sentence.
Thank you Dan. As I work on my dissertation, I am influenced by people like James Hillman, Judith Butler, Madeline Grumet, and Bill Pinar to think about life as an autobiography.
Dear Yvon,
I have nominated you for an award, out of admiration for your work. You need not follow rules. Normally one has to nominate fifteen colleagues. You may not have the time to do so.
