Meaning

I want to talk about the "sign-meaning" construction. Long have been the days when society created this construction. It can also be called "symbol-meaning", "word-meaning", "variable-value"... these are the only synonyms that I am remembering now.

I also want to say a little bit about my journey.

The first step of this journey, that I am on, is to realize this "sign-meaning" construction exists. And modern society relies heavily on this construct.

Then, I have gotten to the conclusion that "meaning" existed (although there was no word for it) before "sign". So "meaning" is more important than "sign".

Afterwards, I have made a clear distinction between "meaning" and "sign". Remembering that "meaning" is (more) important.

With this comes the emptying of my mind. For much relieve to my mind. I stopped giving so much attention to "sign(s)", and I try to keep with just pure "meaning".

Like they say, "there is no word for it" :-) .

And to conclude, after some journeying in this path, comes a point where you are no longer comfortable going forward on this path.

This is where practising "compassion" comes into play... to give some purpose to my mind and to myself.
