Don't talk about clarity -- and leave me here chasing the moon.
Many philosophers do this - talk about clarity and then hit the outer stratosphere of abstraction (eg. Wittgenstein).
The same goes with many of us, ordinary, day-to-day, people who may or may not live in ivory towers but who talk about being intimate while running away from what we really feel, and/or who talk with a suit of armour around our heart. (I couldn't be talking about myself, could I?)

About Me
- david gordon bain
- Good day! My name is David Bain. I have made my living for the past 30 plus years in the transportation industry but my 'hobby-passion' is the study and advancement of psychology and philosophy. I share what I have learned primarily through my network of evolving blogsites, called 'Hegel's Hotel: The DGB Philosophy-Psychology Journal'. My main blog site focuses on the informal study and advancement of Integrative Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. This is an integration of the main 46 years of Freud's work in psychology (1893-1939), as well as different elements of Jung's, Adler's, Perls', Bernes', Masson's, as well as many of the great Western and Eastern philosophers, from ancient times to the present...Healthy, democratic, creative, integrative thinking and respectful debate is the name of the game here in Hegel's Hotel...
