>The writer so far as I know is a theosophist as I have met him in my travels
>along the way and , to me, he is giving rise to the notion of order in a
>mosaic sense yet pointing to Love defying the bounds, as in your post maybe?
>and trying to leave mundane constraints to give rise to a "continuity"? that
>is lacking , sometimes, in day to day writings on trivial as well as profound
>subjects.(What could be more like gods?) ....... It could strike one that
>all this punctuation could easily "box" us and keep us from 'the open road,
>so to speak.
>But i have found in life that while traveling one comes to highly congested
>towns and one has to navigate like mad to make all the twists and turns that
>occur and then it eases as we leave that location and travel "smooths" out.
> The example of the rocky mountains of Moses and the rolling hills of Jesus
>was given in an article from a theosophical publication and one can't help
>feeling that the mosaic punctuation and the rolling hills of its absence are
>all necessary for our development and it was this students intention to bring
>this forward as best as possible in "light" of your entries.

> I enjoy your "style" and greatly appreciate your taking the time to

>intentions. (i notice you had to navigate some periods).The english language
>is tricky at best and human conciousness even more so , soooo, good fortune
>on the "open" highway.
> You know that , in contemplation of this subject, that one could
>even tie all this in with the contraction and expanding of the universe and ,
>still, not be way off base.
>Well, enough for now.

>IN PRAISE OF THE HUMBLE COMMA

> The gods, they say, give breath, and they take it away. But the same could
>be said ----could it not? ---of the humble comma. Add it to the present
>clause , and, of a sudden, the mind is, quite literally, given pause to
>think; take it out if you wish or forget it and the mind is deprived of a
>resting place. Yet still the comma gets no respect. It seems just a slip of a
>thing, a pedant's tick, a blip on the edge of our conciousness, a kind of
>printer's smudge almost. Small, we claim, is beautiful (especially in the age
>of microchip). Yet what is so often used, and so rarely recalled, as thecomma
>---unless it be breath itself?
> Punctuation, one is taught, has a point: to keep up law and order.
>Punctuation marks are road signs placed along the highway of our communcation
>---to control speeds, to provide directions and to prevent head-on
>collisions. A period has the unblinking finality of a red light; the commais
>a flashing yellow light that asks us only to slow down; and the semicolon is
>a stop sign that tells us to ease gradually to a halt, before gradually
>starting up again. By establishing the relations between words, punctuations
>establishes the relations between the people using words. That may be one
>reason why schoolteachers exalt it and lovers defy it ("We love each other
>and belong to each other let's don't ever hurt each other Nicole let's don't
>ever hurt each other," wrote Gary Gilmore to his girlfriend). A comma , he
>must have known, "separates inseparables," in the clinching words of H.W.

> Punctuation , then, is a matter of care. Care for words, yes, but also, and
>more important, for what the words imply. Only a lover notices the small
>things: the way the afternoon light catches the nape of the neck, or how a
>strand of hair slips out from behind an ear , or the way a finger curls
>around a cup. And no one scans a letter so closely a s alover, searching for
>its small print, straining to hear its nuances, its gasps, its sighs and
>hesitations , poring over the secret messages that lie in every cadence. The
>difference between "Jane(whom I adore)" and "Jane, whom I adore," and the
>difference between them both and "Jane ---whom I adore ---" marks all the
>difference between ecstasy and heartache. "No iron can pierce the heart with
>such force as a period put at just the right place," in Isaac Babel's lovely
>words; a comma can let us hear a voice break, or a heart. Punctuation , in
>fact, is a labor of love. Which brings us back, in a way, to gods.
