Part of the richness of an encounter is being intrigued or impressed by the Other
even as we interact with it: a form of twinsight. We may be
impressed by the
existence of the Other: that it is--its actuality, its substantiality, its sufficiency;
uniqueness of the Other: that it is what it is--its voice, its intensity, its radiance;
presence of the Other: that it is what it is to me--its salience, its confrontation, its authority; and
intrigued by hints of possible
beyond-nesses in the Other, possible extensions of the horizons, boundaries, edges of its scope, its pervasiveness or comprehensiveness;
behind-nesses in the Other, possible access to what's happening behind the barriers, occlusions & obstructions, obstacles;
between-nesses in the Other, possible relationships between its elements--contacts, interactions, correlations, synergies.
