To think of intentionality as a digest of commitments and entitlements within a social context including answering attitudes and responses goes a long way towards the sense that it is not you living through the day but the day living through (or en-living!) you. The lightly queasy sense of self that accompanies this is exactly what it feels like to intentionally undertake such a criss-crossed field of responsibilities and conferred authorities. That the broader context in which these are embedded has undergone a sudden, radical and enduring change speaks to the way one only half recognises oneself at this time. This intentional world is however an overlay upon another wholly non-social and non-discursive intentionality, one which doesn't employ or require a turning back on itself. This other one is wholly alive, in contrast to the former.
