Or what you are is the experience of a tree, existence is what takes place
in experience, our lives are experiences, we are a locus of the value of
change,
of what is being experienced, if there was no content to experience there
would
be no individual, no situated life. Being close enough to a tree to see
and/or
touch it changes the processes we are undergoing and unfolding so that
what we become is changed by the interaction with the tree. What we are
is not just the pattern that exists prior to experiencing the tree but the
changes
brough about through interacting with the tree, we are the change, the
change
that incorporates this tree into the process of change that we are with its
contingencies, creativities, possibilities and necessities, repeats and
patterns.

I'm not dissecting and naming. I can, but that's where I'm trying to
come at this. I could. And it can easily be taken that I am coming
at this in that manner, but I'm not. Pirsig mentioned a mental way to
understand. I'm trying to understand in a value way. Again, mental
is a good way. It has value. But value is not restricted to mental only.
Marsha:
How about the value is experience. When I experience a tree, the tree
exists and I who experienced it exist.
