Treatise on Logic

Logic is nothing new.
It tells you "false" from "true", 
and you just can't ditch it
no matter what you do, 
like something on your finger
or something on your shoe.

sometimes logic is underrated. It has a beautiful necessity. Faving

Thanks, Sara! I actually took a class in symbolic logic in college, offered by the philopophy department, but it was more like a math class, lots of p's and q's and ands and ors.

Hey David, I really appreciate this view of logic as something fundamental and inescapable. It makes logic feel less like a rule and more like a constant, sometimes annoying, but ultimately essential, part of existence. Thanks for the thoughtful nudge! Autumn Blessings, David, Daniel

Hi Daniel, thanks! It's like gravity - you can't get rid of it, even when you might want to. Hopefully, my second treatise on logic might be a little more substantive -lol!

Something on my finger or my shoe. Hmm. Wonder what that might be... ~ No. 1 and No. 2
