[Does the thought experiment where ‘I choose something’ have both referential and symbolic character, just like the symbolic order of parole?

Does the potential inherent in me_1a compare to my potential of using manual brachial gestures for hand talk_1a, consisting of a finite and habitual suite of different possibilities.]

[For hand talk, a system of gesturing and seeing₃ brought parole_2a into relation with the potential of a finite number of different habitual manual brachial gestures_1a.

The mirror of the world_3a compares to the system_3a in a system_3a of differences_1a.

A thought experiment that everyone in the group is participating in_3a acts like gesturing and seeing_3a.

Similarly, the potential inherent in me_1a parallels the potential of a set of finite and habitual different features (comparable to the manual brachial gestures in hand talk)_1a.

Something_2a compares to parole_2a, the utterance.]

[Now, I want to compare something_2a to parole_2a.

Parole_2a is the actuality in the content level of the system of differences of language.

The nested form is:

A system…_3a( parole_2a( …of differences_1a))]

[In virtue, I take my responsibilities and freedom for granted.

My responsibility corresponds to mirror of the world_3a(something_2a(____1a)).

My freedom corresponds to ___3a( something_2a( potentials of me_1a)).

In sin, I take my words and my bondage for granted.]

[My choice_2b can validate the expectations in the report_3a.

My friend’s report_3a expects to arouse my desire_1a.

If I make a choice_2b, I validate the thought experiment_3a, even if it turns out that there are no good apples at the market.

Then I do_2b something foolish.

I purchase undesirable apples at a high price.]

[A report of apples at the market_3a acts as a mirror in which I see I can make applesauce and stock up for the winter_2a in the potentials inherent in me_1a.

If I focus on the opportunity for making applesauce_2a, then I address my desire_1a.

If I ask myself, “Is this what I value_1b?”, then I question my desire_1a.]
