If thinking could mean...

Any topics primarily focused on metaphysics can be discussed here, in a generally casual way, where conversations may take unexpected turns.

If thinking could mean exactly what I 'wanted' it to mean it would mean something like, "precisely letting go of everything I 'know' so that this particular mystery right now can speak within me in order to be brokenly spoken from me."

Too long!

it would mean 'a listening that speaks from each particular touch of silence.'

Too long still:

It would mean more-warming any thought's little bit of already-warmth.

Thanks again!

It enriches the image to have more than one. I like them all.

Yeah, the interesting thing is noticing how specifically a given symbol will both carry forward the intricacy and how it won't. At the same freakin' time :)
