Pride - TBD

I am thinking about writing something, perhaps rather extensively, on the subject of pride.

Rationality And Spontaneity

One might think that rationality favors or causes a non-spontaneous mode of decision-making. I think this can't really be the case for a through-and-through rationalist.

Depressish

Yes, let's call it that. That's what this 'therapy' blog might try to sort out.

Naming is important. I am not sure that what I am or have been experiencing is truly a real authentic depression. And I really don't want to claim something that is not correct. Often I am not really sure there's a problem at all. What is a problem? Or predicament. And it doesn't matter what it 'is'. There are simply aspects, if that's what they are, that I feel might be helped by some rational inquiry. Rational in the sense of applying non-delusional thought, if such can be mustered.

That's Between You And What

I thought of the pattern of expression like 'that is between you and your god' and similar.

Is there an equivalent for a rationalist? Maybe "that's between you and your conscience".

Treating the conscience as something separate that is stronger than yourself. Actually not so different, then.
