Robert, I just quickly scanned the article before I head to work.  I am glad to see an article that centers on the importance of a compelling vision and its intimate relationship to the spirit of being fully human.  I consider having a compelling vision for one's own ideal Self -- his being -- as an indispensable tool to achieve a true sense of pride as he approaches that ideal.

That said, the title has a spelling error.  You need to drop the i immediately after the s in the last word of the title because the proper spelling is "Visualizing."

Luke,

 the title has a spelling error

I don't know what your talking about :-)

Actually that was my bad for not catching it. It's fixed now.

A couple of informations regarding this - it is a series of notes on a projected book being planned, and as such there is an unevenness to it in which is hoped to have comments which may aid in filling in more of considered gaps... secondly, while not mentioned in the article itself, some of it  - especially the value parts - came from Tara Smith's Viable Values book, which I found to be very helpful in getting those ideas across, and from which could enlarge in on the area of aesthetics and art, especially visual art... [and yes, in particular, my own - largely as examples, and in explaining why I render what I render the way I render, something few artists bother with neither for their own understanding of what is being done nor far less the elucidation of those being shown...]

It is good seeing this being bounced out again - tho I had hoped there'd be more in the way of discussion involving its contents....  is this because there is no disagreement with what is written? or is it because it is not understood? or cared for, considered as perhaps something only an artist would be interested in instead of the viewers included?
