Zeitgeist
If my last post’s responses are any indication,
you, like me, share some very base tenets and outlooks on life
with many other people.
These people aren’t just like-minded.
They’re alike in spirit, and alike in time.
Zeitgeist comes from German,
zeit being “time” and geist being “spirit,”
and there’s a reason those words come together as a compound.
The people around you will prove it.
And there is safety in numbers.

wow, that was really deep for monday. how about taco bell and retail therapy? that’s my survival plan.
see, i don’t even know my name. damn.
The Sanskrit word would be satsang – like-minded company.
I love these thoughts. And my mother always says “safety in numbers.”
I was going to say something about “safety in numbers,” but Doniree beat me to it!
Connecting with others who live and think like you is always good.
You just blew my mind. I’m impressed with myself for knowing what Zeit and Geist mean in German, but I had never really put them together appropriately in thinking through Zeitgeist.
absolutely. why do you think we blog?
