On The Road: The Stream of Consciousness Style of This Blog

Jack Kerouac, the author of the seminal novel On The Road wrote the novel in a stream of consciousness style. Many of the posts here by myself are written in the same way.  Ideas and concepts spill forth and combine, point at differences, ironies, etc. much as one’s thoughts/experiences change from moment to moment. It is the idea/personal experience which is, ultimately, beneath, within and before, and understanding that enables one to get used to the ambiguities of Life sufficiently to not let ideas ossify into dogmas. I understand this chaotic style can also effect confusion in the reader. I wish I had more time to write a more structured version of what I have posted here. My recent thinking along the lines of and in a book entitled Monopoly, and Duality Within Trinity Within Quadrinity are an attempt to integrate both Duality (a signature of amongst other things, structure) and Trinity (a signature of amongst other things, flow).
