MAKING MEANING

To make meaning, you need meaning. What you find as meaningful is where you can start. What you do not find meaningful is where you can discover new thinking.

You articulate the meanings you can in order to connect with the meanings you cannot yet need to articulate.

Articulation of meaning is like a reaction mass you throw out behind you as you think. It pushes you forward.

If you are thinking, the making of meaning continues. If you are not thinking, then it ceases and you have memories.

Understanding how to make meaning can be gained by practice.

You know how to do it, but maybe do not understand it.

The equation of meaning making is

Meaning1 + Meaning 2 = Meaning 3

You can only understand one meaning by adding another to it, in which case you have something new.
