I do it to communicate in ordinary terms. But consider the telescope. From one end you see large. From the other you see small. It's like that. Life-The Universe-Infinity exists as me, and I exist as It. With any words there are limitations. From the other end there are no limitations. What is your objection? You must know all of this. Two cents worth. Lilola----Lovely p.s. I agree with you, but try writing your own idea instead of commenting on mine, and you will see the problem. It's easier to tear down than to build up. p.p.s.
