As per usual I'm days late responding for I've been out of town, but Moira this is a great post. I do think the very deepest part of a person is the most significant and if we used our seemingly evolved brains, the surface phenomenon of each individual wouldn't be important, but most of us aren't that evolved so I think we both pigeon hole and categorize to gain a small bit of control and order when they don't really exist, because the universe is always changing and entropy is real, but those ideas are too big to grasp most of the time. So in our own little microcosms, we name and categorize and order and judge and somehow this all gives us a sense of understanding and security. Regarding you, I do feel you are one of the few people I've encountered in my life that doesn't judge others, you take people face on, for whoever they are. That makes you a very unique person. The infinite possibilities don't terrify you, you embrace them, where others it would scare to death. -- Eddie Pedantic Gasbag Discussion Group
