the escher cage
---------------
journal - 7.22.97
i got the newest fuck file in the mail today.
number 360. the color of my thoughts quickly
turned grey as i read about the things that
d1s had to thank his friends for. i had a
realization.
no one can live in your reality with you, no
matter how much you try to describe it to them.
analyzing someone else's existence is like
trying to make sense out of an escher drawing,
it is simply an impossibility. each one of us
lives in his own escher cage, and no else can
truely touch you. they can only guess at the
solution to the puzzle.
you might wonder how this file caused me to
come to this conclusion. well, i admit it was a
convoluted train of thought. i read the file
and thought about the things i had to thank
my friends for, and quickly realized how
incongruent my experience is to his. he thanks
his friends for being there for him, for
helping him, for teaching him about life. i
have no understanding of his reality because
my existence is so truly mine. my friendships
have taught me that i need to fend for myself,
that trust is there to be shattered, that
your only constant friend is yourself, and
that love is often a lie. i cannot understand
him, and he cannot understand me. you probably
think that i am just cynical, but that is my
point. this is the escher cage.
there are some exceptions. shakespeare
understood the human experience. there is no
one on earth who cannot find their own thoughts
and feelings in at least one line in one play.
joseph campbell spent his life on unified
experience. truths can be found in his
writings as well. and once in a lifetime,
you just might find the Other, the One Who
Knows, but i think that this must be rare. i
won't hold my breath.
