A rambling, somewhat aged blog enters exactly the same space of disillusionment (in the strict, and active, epistemological sense, rather than the passive-melancholic one). Fotrkd’s pointed recollections — hinting at passageways through one’s own estate, of which one has less than the foggiest understanding — could not be more perfectly designed to push this effect further, into cobwebbed attics of extremity.

You say: the connection is the thought. So has thought already been initiated there (as would be most obvious), or is this the initial requirement for thinking to break out?

Are you looking for a madeleine moment?

So we must move in a circle. This is neither ad hoc nor deficient. To enter upon this path is the strength, and to remain on it the feast of thought. (Heidegger, Off the Beaten Track)
