, Wednesday. Cold, windy and phantom flakes.

I hope you enjoy reading

Diary: November winter weather:


   

~~My morning’s dash outside to beat the weather to come.~~

I know where of I write, because I was out already to buy a paper, hand soap and a Hilroy thin Cahier pack of four, which added up to within loose change range of ten (10) $$. And, as I approached my dwelling place, three or four snow flake way-showers fluttered into my sight! I have changed my four calendars to show November. The Royal Bank kitchen calendar has a photo of the Riel bridge in Winnipeg, which has a restaurant on the bridge. How brilliant.



Writings: Message method groundwork:


   

~~I supplement yesterday’s entry with an old definition and a formulation method for the exposition of my message.~~

Yesterday’s diary was quiet contemplative and as I read the printout last night I was reminded of my definition of religion as follows: ‘Religion is a (re)-structuring of the past, to create a perspective on the future in order to act in the present.’ Today, I replace ‘religion’ by ‘belief framework’, to make this definition applicable to science and ideology.

Religion is a (re)-structuring of the past, to create a perspective on the future in order to act in the present.

A second notion surfaced as well last night. It is a plan as to how to write about such a perspective for today as I wrote about in yesterday’s daily entry. First I need to layout the structure of the message using concepts. Once done, I have to clothe that concept structure with a narrative that connects the human deep past to our present situation.

This I will set out to do possibly in my writings sections piece meal wise over the next few days. This seems to work better for me than an attempt to compose an essay straight off, which attempts often remain abortive. <9:16am and 9:31am with edit.
