The unexamined life is not worth living.
So said Socrates. (BTW) Am I trying to recapture my youth? In going back to read something someone else was some 45 years ago? I've had this thought for a while since retiring and having the time to be more sociable. Posting here simply passes the time.
The reality is we live in an environment where commercial transactions are what 'life' has become. There's very little else to existing on the slab. Get your money out; have a nice day. So, if I have anything else to say they're not in the least bit interested in, I guess I say it here.
I see that there are people who look at this blog. Make some comments. Let me know who you are. Very much out of my element and starved for intelligent human interaction amidst strangers, I'm just coping. And, hey... I did read Homer, Plato and Aristotle when I was a kid. Does that make me a snoot? Trouble is I've forgotten much and, yes, am indeed struggling to refresh my mind in a vacuum.
Well, even writing things up, pursuant to grammatical challenges, good for something, I should think. How to say without saying something makes enemies you don't need?
