anxiety of ignorance for a too-curious mind



The sea of information can be overwhelming for a surfing reader who wants to capture a prevailing tide, a clear Telos of Our species?

It’s not to be had, of course—though a capability for prospecting may shape appealing conceptual fictions.

What else can one do?

Like a fictional telos of one’s own life, horizons of life—personal, cultural, conceptual, social, political—may be practical appeals for fidelities which become fruitful.

But for life, seafaring sees horizons transformed by engaged times. Any sense of Telos is evolving.

So, let there be trust in time giving courage to invite wilderness, for that’s how practical humanity actualizes potential for unprecedented inception, if such flourishing is well organized.

So, detailing organized flourishing can be useful—can be, as if proffered designs can scale into promising agendas of shared times, cultural, conceptual, social, and political times usefully.

In that engagement, a prospecting scavenger of better minds, a preferred humanity (so many texts, so little time), may highly constellate coherings which show telic promise for better thinking, better futuring.
