Describing the Scenes ©1998 NICOLEA
Penelope and the Suitors by John William Waterhouse
a) As you reflect back to the time you experienced that problem (while pursuing your significant goal), would you explain what you have been doing since you experienced that problem? For some people that period of time may be short, but for others it may be years, but, in either case, whatever you have been doing is a tangent from your pursuit of that goal, isn't it?
b) Now, using the example of the problem you experienced as you sought to achieve one of those personally significant goals, and following the theatrical model, would you please give a description of the scenes that your problem went through?
At this point be free to write out all your thoughts and feelings. Don’t worry about the particular order it takes because later we will show you how to structure it out and how to present it in a diagram.
c) Now, please review your description and make sure you have included how you felt in each scene, as well as what was said by each of the parties involved.
d) Have you described how each of the persons looked or appeared in each of these scenes?
May we preserve these philosophical beauties, and exhibit them to others. May this web site expand their elegance by the enlivening rays of the philosophic fire; and by the powerful breath of genius, scatter abroad in this virtual world these latent but copious seeds.
If some sparks of this celestial fire shall animate the reader, consider yourself as well rewarded for this laborious undertaking. Ancient philosophy has been, for centuries, the only study to break the shackles of ignorance; and in which one finds an inexhaustible treasure of intellectual wealth, and a perpetual fountain of wisdom and delight.
Presuming that such a pursuit bestows the highest benefit, I, Webmistress, desire no other reward than the wealth of wisdom, and Reason as my constant Guide. If successful, may I see the praise of the liberal; and if not, I expect no defense for failure, other than the decision of the candid, and discerning few, thus the opportunity to learn, and purgation by philosophic fire.
