We exercise our freedom in serving either God or Satan.
[What is this mirror3a that I am obligated to engage whenever ‘I choose something’?
It is a source of reflectivity that I always seem to ignore.
It reflects the perspective level, the Zeitgiest, in a highly personal manner.]
[So I pray (or think about it).
The interscope becomes an intersection.
The non-contemplative acts.
The contemplative prays.]
[Now, I want to go one step deeper.
What is this thought experiment3a that brings something (some content)2a into relation with the potential inherent in me1a?
If I only consider the actuality of something2a, then neither the thought experiment3a nor the potential of me1a are apparent.
They become apparent in the interscope.]

[At this time, thinkdivine clearly broadcasts into the thought experiment.
One Triune God illuminates the mirror of the world when our delusional clouds temporary give way to clear skies.]
[Thinkgroup or me change.
It breaks my heart.
Is this only time when I experience my heart?
The living heart is always on fire.
The heart is always trying to resolve its contradictions.]
[How long could coherence last if the potential inherent in me1a is brought to life by a thinkgroup illuminating ‘my mirror of the world3a’?
Disconnects build up.
Thinkgroup changes.
I change.]
[The general term ‘obligations’ contains both ‘responsibility’ and ‘words’.
Responsibility stands in contrast to words.
Both are categorical transitions within the intersection.
Both go with the horizontal nested form:
Thought experiment3H(my choice2V and something2H(__1H))
Here is the arena of free choice, for good or evil.
Here is where the obligation is forged as either responsibility or delusion.]
