## Publishing as a form of expression It was my main goal to start publishing my ideas. I have been thinking about this for almost 2 years now and never really got to it. And as an active member of the LYT-community I came acrosse the idea of using a metaphor for my vault. The metaphor and the purpose of the vault is meant to shape it's contents and give you more clarity and joy working with it. After some pondering I came up with the "Denkarium" the magical item in the Harry Potter series. In English it is called" pensieve". The author intended this to be a pun of pensive and sieve. >[!Info] pensive >pen·​sive > >musingly or dreamily >thoughtful [[PensiveChapters/Pensieve Denkarium]] contains the definition from Pottermore website. Well, to continue my story, I chose this a as metaphor for my vault to guide my purpose and meaning in using my vault. I wanted to use a custom domain and felt like I needed to create a memorable yet meaningful domain name. Using GoDaddy's AI feature I came up with **pensivechapters**. So looking into the definitions of the pensieve and the deifnition of pensive and chapters the website name has the following meanings for me: Chapter: - **A Phase or Period in Life** – A distinct stage in someone's personal journey, often marking change or transition. - **A Turning Point or New Beginning** – A fresh start or a decisive shift in direction. A **chapter** in human life is **a distinct phase or period marked by significant experiences, transitions, and personal growth, shaping an individual’s journey through beginnings, challenges, relationships, and transformations, ultimately contributing to the larger narrative of their existence.** >[!info] Use of AI >I use ChatGPT to get more concise definitons, when I feel my English is too limited to define terms. I also like to see whether my understanding aligns with the broad "consensus" of the term. And I would say an AI model trained on language has the broadest consensus available. pensive - engaged in, involving, or reflecting deep or serious thought. - Similar: - **thoughtful** - thinking - reflective - contemplative - musing - meditative - **introspective** - prayerful - **philosophical** - cogitative - *ruminative* - **absorbed** - engrossed - rapt - preoccupied - deep/immersed/lost in thought - in a brown study - broody - serious - studious - solemn - dreamy - dreaming - wistful - brooding - melancholy - sad - **ruminant** All these terms reflect the sensemaking activity perfectly. I also think that chapters is a perfect addition as it signifies the time aspect for my journey. It is about sections in your life. It contains the meaning of change and evolving personality. For my [[PKM Personality]] I chose the [[The Inner Guide]]. So again this is a perfect fit for now.
