A Shelter Between Earth and Sky
"Through all the arcs he lived in pain, his birthing name he earned the right to claim,
Through triumph and tragedies, too many to name,
This Viden boy his life he gave.”
Isick Hawther, epitaph to Jedith Skylar
Through triumph and tragedies, too many to name,
This Viden boy his life he gave.”
Isick Hawther, epitaph to Jedith Skylar
It is often said that humanity, indeed all living beings, are Gestalts and should be understood as such. The issue of such thinking, is if the quantity is in fact greater than the mere sum of the components’ of that thing, how can that article be known? The answer, truly, is that it can’t. For even if one fully comprehended all the aspects of all the qualities that comprised any item, whether it be living or inert, if it is greater than merely the interworking of these fundamentals, there would remain always some facet beyond the reach of comprehension. Some unknown feature that could not be contained in the knowledge gleamed from examining each constituent. Perhaps this is in fact so. Perchance this is why the inner workings of organisms, that final hidden long sought after portion, continually elude philosophers and psychologists alike. Conceivably this is why so many behaviors of beast and being alike so baffle us all.
Still, another possibility exists to serve as an illuminating mechanism to this perplexity that currently confounds us. This response is at once equally Feasible to that of the concept of Gestalt and also provides with a means for improving a number of investigatory activities. I am referring to here of nothing so much as conjunction, the feature of both rationality as well as language that binds constituents’ together.
This union in all matters can be exemplified in the everyday example of putting salt into a stew or soup. Once the salt has been conjoined with that dish, neither soup or salt, is quite the same. There is however, no hidden third factor in play here. Merely two distinct products that once adjoined become something else. Here then, in keeping with our case of stew is another type of dish, even though those that consume it might not cook it beforehand, the features of one Mixed-breed, Jedith Skylar.

"The term half-breed is more of an affront to the one that uses it, than the one it is used on. For the one that uses it demonstrates the lacking of understanding of distinctness. For in so saying our glorious ninny believes that the elements of any being can be neatly divided into portions much like slices of a pie.”
