  • Writings II

    • Now the writings are guided by the question how can we disregard what people think about us?
  • However, this question is conditioned by the answer to another question: What does the opinion of people about us consist of?
    • Let’s try to respond this question by means of the examination of an example.
    • I am walking along the pavement and see a neighbor, whom barely recognize his face.
    • I am walking fast, so I see it just for an instant.
  • His facial expression makes me think that he is judging me for any reason.
  • That thought is the result of an act of interpretation.
  • I suppose what he thinks about me on base of what I actually see of him, namely, his face.
  • So, where is the content of the thoughts that I suppose by the act of interpretation?
    • Since in that experience the only thing I could actually see was the face of my neighbor, the content of those thoughts has not an immediate connection with my sensitive impressions of my neighbor.
  • For example, if I see the face of my neighbor and then I close my eyes and try to remember his face, the content of that thought would be immediately connected with the original sensitive impression because now I am trying to reproduce that sensitive experience.
  • But in this case, I have not had a sensitive impression of the thoughts of my neighbor nor I am trying to remember some kind of sensitive experience.
  • Rather, the content of the thoughts seems to be an original creation of my mind.
  • Nevertheless, the content of my thoughts has an authentic connection with the sensitive impression of the face of my neighbor, because that sensitive impression has caused the thoughts.
    • This connection, however, is not an immediate connection because my thoughts are not linked with my sensitive impression of my neighbor’s face by affinity ─as in the case of the last example─ but they are linked by a causal connection.
