J:  I'm not exactly sure what you mean by " DQ/SQ metaphysics" (so many
people have different ideas) but in plain old english, words express
reality/experience through a combination of logic and
analogy/metaphor/story.

Logic by itself doesn't get anywhere.

John:

seems to me that if something is truly indefinable, then the only way it
can maintain its meaning is if you don't define it (talk about it).

Joe:

John:  It can't, that was my point.

 Joe:

 One size does not fit all!


John:  unless it's a real big size and you don't mind it fittin' baggy.

John:  How many selves are there?  As many as you need.

John:  The will to be comes before actual being.

 If Quality = experience then your "DQ/SQ hosts reality" is mere tautology
but thanks anyway,
