"The observer is the observed." -- Krishnamurti
What a paradigm for bloggers.
We observe, we watch, we report -- on matters external and internal. And others observe these observations and watch and report. It's a loop.
The very act of observing changes me.
If I observe my own thoughts and actions, especially in writing, the act provides objectivity, and that objectivity reduces the "I" factor, enabling serenity.
But do we change what we observe, as the observer effect in physics states (often confused with the Heisenberg uncertainty principle)?
You tell me, dear reader.
