being one Self gary e. davis |

An elusive, yet vital, feature of being is the mystery of oneself feeling implicitly backgrounded by oneself (life-orienting values, past individuation, etc.), such that one is essentially more than conscious selfidentity. Self reflection is essen- tially self-differential. One’s selfidentity is of one Self beyond easily articulable selfidentity. One‘s awareness easily feels to be of that life-orienting background- ing mysteriously. Inasmuch as Self feels distinct from oneself (inevitably, for self-reflection), a self-reflective differentiation between lifecycle Self and conscious selfidentity is ex- pressed as representable difference: a sense of Self/self differentiation. Yet, a flexible adulthood is also a plurality of interpersonal identities or s/p differ- entiality. The near-term accessibility of that is “contained” by the horizonal lifecycleness of S/s differentiability, though the individuated phenomenology of that is likely mysterious. One’s lifecycle sense of one’s Time horizons discernable senses of s/p differentiality. So, referring to “oneSelf” should not seem obscure. It’s oneSelf which easily seems obscure. For authentic life, a person is in charge of their future (inasmuch as the times allow), oriented by long-term aspirations, manifold engagements, preferred projects, etc. Being a flourishing life cannot be fairly understood as a subjectivity. Altogether, the S/s/p-differentiated lifecycleness of oneSelf causes an appealing sense of proteany, especially since I have so much online: There’s no best place to begin formally.

psychality again -|- May 2020 |
Good reasons can be given for the neologism (better than ‘mind’) as encom-passing concept of individuational mentability. This discussion is circum-spective, not pretending to be comprehensive. It highlights my interest in phenomenal relating, differentiating, and interpreting. |

This discussion provides more detail about the individuational importance of phenomenal relating and differentiating. |
historical “psyche” -|- May 2020 |
