Has anyone seen Mulholland Drive? What a strange movie that was. I think life is like that movie. It’s continually changing, overlong (in some cases), and makes very little meaning and/or sense. Or the sense it makes, is made by the observer, who is the action he/she observes?
I’ve not seen that film, but it sounds more interesting than entertaining. Your comments about it seem equally applicable to the British weather, whence point 1 (apologies for misspelling “meteorology”). Of course, point 1 is the counterpart to point 8. But you are the weather, Luke, not the meteorologist or his data, models and forecasts. As far as we know, the weather is not sentient and cannot give itself meaning. The same can be said for mental activity, yet Luke is more than the weather in his head or the abstracted climate. The sun shines, the wind blows, the rain falls; sufficient unto the day is the weather thereof.
1. Meteorlogy.
2. Sense is at the expense of meaning.
3. I am an ambivalent reaction to the dichotomy of meaninglessness.
4. We are not what we do.
5. Where would we be without the clouds of confusion?
6. The sense-maker is part of the nonsense.
7. Why would it? How could it?
8. Luke.
I like this response. Not sure about 8.

I think too much about too little!
Thanks, Luke. I wasn’t sure
