Earthquakes carry our perspectives into

Your viewing self-awareness not the static pattern

Of course. If I tried to fit my concepts with
your thesis, then I would be conceptualizing within
your thesis. But, I don't understand your thesis. My
experience before the MOQ allowed me to fit right into
the MOQ. My experience before your thesis doesn't fit
into your thesis.
