I think the world fluctuates between a reflection of myself and an entirely independent entity with nothing to do with me and my perceptions. Having spent a lot of effort on the model of the world streaming in and out of my head, the idea of being non-participant in reality is appealing. It sometimes feels more true to release reality to be as it is. This is difficult to explain except as an attempt to release control or influence. To be there but not? Maybe it comes from a wrinkle in critical thinking where even thinking clearly can be seen as biased.

Liked Sheri’s prezi on hacking. There’s a saying in writing instruction: let go of all the clever things you create so your mind can get beyond itself. To break-down pathways in the brain to allow new perspectives.
