I think my current thoughts about meaningful coherence of interior constructs are related to my recent notes about living a fragmented life, as nothing illustrates life fragmentation so well as a fragmented mental framework. And as I’ve put much of my interior construct here, I find it telling how I often will be writing an idea down, only have it remind me of something else I’ve said or train of thought I’ve had, but either be unable to locate where I wrote it down (it’s sad but I have a terrible memory sometimes) or worse when I do find my past idea but discover it’s are better than my present one.

So it is I have embarked on a project to make more coherent my thought and lines of thought here by improving the categories and tags by which I label them. Though it’s been surprisingly more time consuming than expected to (re)read and assess the material I believe it will be worthwhile – partially because it’s already has been worthwhile. Indeed as I return to some of my earliest essays here, most often they are not so much better or worse than more recent ones as they intriguingly carry the compact kernels of thoughts and ideas I later differentiated more fully.

No less the result is a sort of an incomplete ‘Contents Map’ of an ‘Octopus Interior’ in much the same fashion as our subjective reality (in aggregate or individual) can be said to be ‘mapping‘ our objective reality. And if this sort of framework map is never completed, it’s notable that it’s also a map whose quality, meaning and significance shall improve as it becomes more coherent – as more previous and current essays are categorized and tagged with its coherence.
