Previously we talked about Memory-Intuition.
Where a living being can remember what each place was for.
Which other living beings safe and which are not.
After Memory-Intuition, The next step is to extraploate what is, into what must be.
If a living being has learned its territory in the shape of a 'C'
Then it is a logic jump to surmise there must be a way from one end of the C to the other.
A shortcut accross instead of gong all the way around.
I'm calling that logic jump abstract thought.
Abstract may not be the right word for this concept.
I saw a different, more specific word once.
But I don't remember what it was.
So I'm using abstract for now.
Abstract thought can take a known location,
and envision additional or different uses.
An Abstract thinker can invision a place
that is safer than what they have now.
They could envision being up higher,
or being in something with only one entrace.
In this definition,
the Abstract thought layer is not creating or buildin a better place.
But envisioning that such a place might exist up in the trees of a woods
or in the rocks of a mountain.
