Feel with the Mind when Navigating the Heart.

Situate the Heart within its sensible substratum, a door that lets waves and winds, light and reveals dark, all the time, in & out, in and out. If we close the doors for long enough, we’ll have a build up of what I’m calling elements but are really abstractions of currents of moods, emotions, affects, intuitions, some that pass through us from our Selves and others from the World. I called it a door because its easier to start off acknowledging that ‘I’ am not the world around me, nor the other “I"s in the world. ‘I’ am never privy into the thoughts of strangers and friends, into the immense time and livelihood that goes behind each word that comes from a friend’s smile. Love opens the Heart to the realization that it doesn't feel alone; Hearts swim in a living world that feels with them, a network of affect, force, living tissue made of of Spirit over time that connects us to the hearts of all living beings, to the hearts we love but cannot see.

I have some more notes on affective vs intelligible imagination but I can't find them right now :)
