Tonight I well read what you posted and then respond shortly; I don't have the internet so I usually copy and paste things so that I can read them at home later.
fyi I don't use mathematics because I haven't been trained, I only talk in concepts which I read in books or come up with on my own

Hello again Dustin,
Always good to converse with you. I must preface my remarks with the caveat that I do not consider myself advanced at all....but I really love reading, and thinking about, things.
....and trying to make sense of them. That's how I've learned that sometimes trying to connect unfamiliar ways of seeing ideas with more familiar ways (and hopefully correctly extrapolating the differences I can understand)...leads me bit, by bit to newer paths. I don't speak math either, but sometimes metaphor suffices quite nicely.
These articles are a gold mine of metaphoric connections. Hope you, and others who choose to read them, find it as useful an exercise as I do (not being a mathematician).
Looking forward....
