HOW VAPID IS THAT?

some things are just wrong like needlessly exposing your flank an army's or a person's ... always wrong simply given a repetition of the circumstances ... I'm not saying that it doesn't take skill and good judgment to figure out the initial patterns and then to recognize them in repetition ... I'm saying when all the subjective pitfalls are cleared and the forms as they truly are are finally set their connections and relations are fixed forever necessary and eternal ... but all this is common sense you say but where's this eternal stuff ... things stay the same unless they change ... it's not even a platitude it's a tautology but who says forever ... perhaps you mean one moment after another without stopping ... time without end ... but what if there were another kind of eternity not time without end because there is no time no change but one big ball in which all that has happened or will is happening now but without the ing ... past tense and participles get shed ... person and point of view as well ... leaving only happen all ready complete ... changeless ... therefore eternally true
