I don't know. Do people try to define beingness? I

really don't know.

I guess people specialize in different kinds of mind

activity. My personal brand of confusion is

words and scenarios.

I don't have the experience of questions and answers

in silence. I don't know how to ask a question

like a thought. I do feel like knowledge is different from

thoughts. Maybe that's the same thing you're saying

and only the words we're choosing are different.
