Ponderings?

The ponderings introduced below began with notes accumulated for over 30 years in the pages of journals and notebooks. They are presented here as provisional proposals for responding to questions that many of us ask ourselves. What does this, that and the other mean? What good is it? What to do about it? What to do with it?

Although listed as short sentences in alphabetical order as is customary in dictionaries, it is definitely not our intention to assert or affirm definite or determinative definitions. They are simply ideas based on experiences, available and ready to be revised and replaced by other experiences.

The ponderings that follow may serve as suggestions to stimulate readers’ own ponderings.
