Shared Human Underground · Beyond the Surface Frames
⁘ “In different tunings, castings and contexts — but all of it churning from the same underground, the same weave and fabric of our existence. We have millions upon millions of frameworks of thought with their particular vibes and lexicons. We think of our essence as dependent on them. Can we look past the frame into what's underneath? We might find more of our parallels — and broader avenues for reconciliation, harmonization, and mutual understanding.”
Yes, in different tunings,
in different castings, in different contexts,
but all of it churning from the same underground,
the same substratum,
the same weave and fabric of existence, that is as-is to me.
We have all these millions upon millions,
literally, frameworks of thought,
with their particular vibes, flavours,
their particular lexicons, choices of terminology,
their particular orientations.
And we all think of the essence
as dependent on these frameworks.
If only we could look beyond the frame into what's underneath,
we might find more of our parallels,
we might find more avenues for reconciliation,
harmonization, mutual understanding.
And through that, through mature essential communication,
we may begin to coordinate and collaborate
with an understanding that for all of our diversity,
the underlying concerns are very much the same.
