After one and a half years in engineering I realized I was bored with that pursuit.
ReplyDeleteSince then I have been occupied with social issus and art.
I was a writer for a number of years until health problems became an obstacle.
Was in NYC during one summer and Los Angeles three years. I've returned to Indiana for a better (in my case) job environment. I wish I had some of the resources of a city which is a great population center and cultural place; however the pace there would be hard on me.
I enjoy being in small city having a university.
cheers

ReplyDeleteI've an analytic mind and am sensitive. --Am in some senses conservative and cautious. Am imaginative often.... I try to be a patient individual. Those good souls who brought me up, now departed, taught me compassion.
I was a social worker who missed his mark. Um, I think. So I'm possibly not always rational or shrewd when I witness suffering.
On a profile elsewhere I have {perpetuity} am not sure of that wording. Due to my carefulness.
Have had, admittedly, hard times. Mutual aid is what appeals most. Help which is TWO-way.
"Souls" (above) was somehow with the forums in mind.
Originally was a red head.
From Purdue
My home was (is?:) a small community @ approx center of the north one-half of Indiana.
I began school in engineering and finished in the arts and sciences. My politics are left of center, though not on all issues.
R & R music in high school. And the beginning of symphonic music. The beginnings of a jazz buff I was, in college. But then, with a relocation, R & R again! 13th Floor Elevator, Clapton (early), Byrds.
But always composers like Hovannes,.. Telemann. Recently Satie I've discovered.
Johnny Cash is a mensch !
J.D. Salinger is a favourite of mine, and Chaim Potok. Faulkner is fulfilling, always!, but sometimes overwhelming.
Back to philosophical writings: The Levinas mentioned above, taking off from Martin Buber, bases everything in something like (psychological) the way the subject separates from the other. For a respecting alterity. Soon after "the beginning.* Egolessness he tells us about. Yet principles.
