 One frustration is that, if you keep doing the right thing, and grounding your work in genuinely legitimate thought, the folks who ground their experience in the pragmatic game will always dismiss you out of hand -- this is why there always needs to be a bit of the "know thyself" command in the writing.  You must always be gently reminding the others that their understanding might be a bit less grounded than they think.

Nietzsche coined the term 'amor fati,' I think.  Appropriate, as he was among the first to see where the collective project of thought was heading in Western civilization.  If you understand the event, you can come to understand as well that your position within it, however inauspicious, is a necessary one.
