This approach seems contradictory. You have to accept that things obviously have a beginning and ending, then ignore that for as long as you can and pretend that you're always equidistant from the beginning and end. It's like an inside-out Xeno's Paradox. 1/n

It makes more sense to me at the moment if it's adjusted to match the concept of an origin point or relative positioning. Being "centered" means defining yourself as the reference point and understanding where everything else falls in that system. 2/n

You don't have to pretend that being the "center" or the default reference point also makes you equidistant from all of the things you measure. That's silly. Things will approach and depart your origin point constantly. 3/n

You’re working out an alt mental model rather than critiquing mine. They serve different kinds of centering needs. Clearly you don’t experience one of them
