The stories change rapidly and the owner or subject or object of these stories changes accordingly, even when one of the themes of the story is his so very constant identity, because the stories are nothing but the weaving together of themes. What makes them stories is their accomplished aboutness. The frame of reference moves but the tale is always about the origin of co-ordinates which naturally seems to always be in the same place. If the state of the body, the breath, the inner face, the flexions and circulations, the physics of solids, liquids and gases, the kinetic and potential activations, is like the background music of life in time then most of the stories are invented on the spot in order to resolve this pre-existent music into some kind of sense, to carry it on and develop it so that it can be understood. And if a story doesn't arise then what about some real music? The important thing is to play on, play one. What is constant is the sense of some sort of predicament: every subject has one, is one, good or bad, and so they might as well belong to the same subject, the identical one who's always just opened his eyes, who always has so much to do, who is engaged with truth and whose truth escapes him, who deals with reality and whose real life is elsewhere.
