grumpyGrumpy asks: Is Grumpy really Grumpy?

Picture of Real Farm
Now, I am not too sure. Am I really Grumpy? Is that the question? Or am I really grumpy? Perhaps that is the question. And why am I so uncertain about these things, which, after all, should be blatantly obvious to anyone?
How did I reach this poignant peak of uncertainty, this pregnant pause of self doubt?
Well you may ask...!
By reading Orble, of course. Self doubt, I realise now, must be one of the major symptoms of blogging mania. It seems to creep into the cracks of our little corner of the blogging universe soon after we begin to indulge our penchant for absorbing the endlessly self validating fantasies of others. It would appear that the pressure this creates produces a kind of cognitive dissonance field - or CDF for short, whereby what seems to be one thing can actually be another.
Now that I have discovered this new field, I am wondering if it might not be cross modulated with the well known SEP field to produce a new kind of blog. That is, one that is written by someone who is not me but is me, and yet no matter what me not me says, it will always be someone elses problem and never mine - whoever I am, that is.
So do not trust your instincts - I may - or may not - be Grumpy... or grumpy, as the case may be.
And the picture? It could be of the only real thing here.
Bwahahahaha!!

Thoughts on life from my point of view
Advertising stuff i find on the web!
good darkness!......
hmmmm such a formulated theory you have come across! i like the idea!........ it would explain a lot in how i think.......
personally i don't think we are who we think we are! but in fact we are an abstract aspect of what we think we are not!..... the meaningless of the existence is by far outreaching our own aspects!

I s'pose is what I see when I look around me as being the image of me... if I don't like it, then I am free to change it. When I cannot change it, then perhaps I am grumpy too... for a while, then I must wait for it to change when 'they' have had their fill of 'teaching me my lesson,' for making the choice in the first place. It's needs then being to heal.
((laughs)) But through it all, it is me at the core, driving it home, through the reflected fields of blog-manic-doubt....and conjecture.
Of people like you, reflecting grumpy, or not ... I realise I am human too.

PS I must ask what VK7 AXZ means?

And Gaye, well may you be confused, but there are layers of meaning here, wheels within wheels. Let he - or she - who has ears to hear, hear.

At least it aids in whittling another day to a close, I suppose.
"I think, therefore I am." Rene Descartes
Yes, but it does not indicate where that thought is. Are thoughts actually where we physically stand? Or are they in another place, another dimension? Not here, but in the nether, the ether, the twain world, at the time line border of reality and dreams, that place we think at, and ponder upon the lot we have, in the hardest spiritual realm of all, this reality.
But what is reality? Is mine the same as yours?
I doubt it!
Is this physical construct we 'exist' in, most subsist upon, is this really at the time and place we have dictated, Greenwich Mean Time, Australian Eastern Daylight Time?
Does a watch actually prove time exists? Or did we invent time, just so we could make demands on others and create false expectations of nature?
If we had not invented the clock, would we be aware of our place in history?
At the end of the day, this is but one reality, it exists because we are conscious of being alive, yet there is an anti-universe, the exact opposite of our reality here, so the physicists hypothesise…
So which one is the real one?
This one? The other? Neither, or both?
Which one are you in? Are we in the same time and place, but refuse to acknowledge it? Are we but one entity, of many psychic parts?
Are we but a dream, a fanciful notion of no physical substance and the idea of Armageddon, is actually an alarm clock ready to wake us up?
