"Reality isn't a product of your mind"
-
Sorry? How does this relate? Of course reality is not a product of the mind. Meaning is tho.
-
eg my daughter is real. She means a lot to me. I have purpose & meaning as 'mother'. She means nothing to you.
-
That's because she's not my daughter, and I'm not her mother. Not because of anything you invented or imagined.
-
Exactly. I'm not claiming to gain meaning from anything I've invented or imagined.
-
I'm claiming, I'd have thought unexceptionably, that what gives my life meaning is subjective & that's normal.
-
But your example was of motherhood, which is not a subjective thing. You are objectively a mother.
-
Ha! But it doesn't objectively give my life meaning. I take it as my primary purpose which is subjective.

She's not looking to discuss or debate, only to lecture and screech from her wobbly platform.

It doesn't follow from the attachment of 'red' to it's meaning being a decision that the meaning itself is decision
