Hi Adrie!
Indeed! Good to see you posting again, old friend!

Dan:
Yes, I tend to agree with this. Our language (or should I say the English
language) is anchored in the subject/object reasoning what with the 'I's'
and the 'me's' and the 'you's' that abound and it seems rather a silly
endeavor to attempt to disavow that.

Right. Very frustrating as well.

Dan:
That's my thinking as well. We create reality, not the other way around.
And those who fight against this notion are so convinced they are
independent observers of a separate reality it is impossible to reason with
them. They throw up a whole host of reasons why this cannot possibly be so.

Thanks again for writing,

Dan
