on certainty 248

248. I have arrived at the rock bottom of my convictions.

And one might almost say that these foundation-walls are carried by the whole house.

how would you know?

how would you know what rock bottom is?

isn’t it rather that you have stopped asking questions –

stopped doubting the ground of your beliefs –

and that your ‘convictions’ – are as uncertain as they ever were?

‘foundation walls carried by the whole house’ –

nice poetic image –

and yes it might suit you to describe your beliefs in this way –

and it will fit well with your beliefs –

because it is as uncertain –

as any belief you operate with
