Impress my Soul


Psychologist and philosopher Nick Humphrey has some interesting ideas about the source and function of consciousness. He suggests, among other things, that consciousness is needed to impress the soul. Being enchanted with the magic of experience may provide a reason to live in itself. I can sympathize with this idea.

  3. Hi Joseph,
    Thanks for the comments- I've been busy with a lot of nonsense, but am getting back to work in earnest now with a clear head.

  4. a clear head--that's a gift. I'm usually very clear headed but lately with all these visitors and parties, I can't say I have one. Today is a recovery day. Sort of.

    Good luck.

  5. I'm recovering, too. I'm happy to say it's going great so far, and I feel so much better.
