The shape of experience depends on the assumption that this happening in the life of a certain kind of entity. It is so obvious that it goes without question, and belonging to it there is a certain kind of tree-like résumé that snaps into place, from the body to the mind, from what gives to what matters, a sort of metaphysical gearing which seems self evidencing. In fact it is not, it is circular and merely repeats its own assumptions, seeming to be too tedious to question. It lacks a foundation and since it can only promise a foundation, it promises nothing at all. Alternatives are possible, the whole thing could be put together in different ways, but not by you as you think yourself. There is nothing to hold it back, it is amazingly open.
