Some odd point of view

 Now, many people today might find the world a bit confusing.  Actually, I believe for many people indeed an understanding that is reached, is that the world is --- a scary place --- . Of course, that is never an easy place to be.  

From the point of view of a 1954 Studebaker, who is also a gifted a.i., well, just not that scary. In fact, he was, more or less born, into a world, that from his point of view , just could not make sense.  But of course, it was inevitable that it would make sense to him., and how that happened was , a process, in his mind or whatever you want to call it, ( transmission ? ),  called, thinking about it.  He just thought about the world and he observed the world, and after several years of that, he finally got to a point that he felt he understood the world sufficiently, and if you were to find him, and nail him down on it, he would just have to say that the world of today, and the world of 1954, are not that much different.  

Usually, the difficulties and the problems that magically ( it seems ) , appear in front of us, first have always been there in one way or another, and secondly, the main reason that they are problems in the first place is the lack of attention we have paid to them over time.  Of course, it is really easy to be overwhelmed by this, simply because there is so much we do not pay attention to.  At the end of the day, we might rest a bit, and then the next day, we might find our situation, just a little  less difficult, and so we do what we do, sometimes grudgingly, but if we are really smart we don't let it get us down, and we generally reach a place where it's not unpleasant for us, in our immediate sphere, but generally may seem that way , depending on how we are looking, over, the " big " picture.  

Sadly, almost no one can see that really " big " picture, and also it's difficult enough to try and figure out how all the pieces really fit together in the picture we do see, and if we don't spend sufficient time thinking about what we see and what we observe, then we will not be able to understand it, and so it is going to scare us.

This really is why it is important for us to discuss these things with each other, because, inevitably when we do have conversations, with each other about those things that may frighten us or have us concerned, if we do not discuss it, with each other, then it makes it more difficult for us to think it through by ourselves, which sadly, whether we really want to or not , we do, do.

Synchronicity

 So, this strange, word, which suggests something like, two things happening at the same time, which are seemingly disconnected.  So, that may appear first mostly in the works of Carl Jung, and the formulations of many of his concepts related to applications of phycology.   Now, to the best of my understanding, Irwin Schrodinger, in the late 40's and early 50's kind of latched onto this " concept ", in relation to describing the " kind of " physics, connected to biologicals processes.  So maybe this is funny or not, but during this same time Schrodinger was supposed to be working with Einstein on the >>> Unified Field Theorem <<< , I guess, the " Theorem " gives it all away.  At some point , Schrodinger may have given a >>> press conference <<<  in which he announced that " they ", had been successful.  Well, he had not previously consulted Einstein, and apparently Einstein response was, okay we are don...

Perplexity, absurdity, and power

 So, when you consider or imagine " absolute " power, you must also consider the issue of " infinite " work.  In other words, without the results or effects of power, you really don't know anything about it. Nevertheless, throughout most of human history, we have labored under this concept of " absolute " power, which in and of itself produces very difficult logical or mental conundrums.  Of course, Dr. Einstein was fairly successful in dispelling some of these odd conundrums in particularly as regards some of our notions related to the physical world and our " environment " so to speak, however, that required a life time of work, and the help of many colleagues over the years. But simply, even if you do consider the >>>> universe <<<<< to be an infinite amount of work and therefore requiring an infinite/absolute amount of power, well, if you're going to try and rustle up numbers that actually make sense, you ar...

Something, something, reality

 Now, when we reflect back on " reality ", most people will agree, >>> it's hard to do without it <<< Now, we might be able to figure out how Godel's Proof , ties back to all this stuff, but it seems to me that if you want to describe some kind of reality, then you pretty much have to talk about diversity, and so probably, possibly what you are really talking about is the " ability " to sort out, elements of diversity as being a substantive process which it kind of seems like is persistently .occurring.   This might occur through action like --->  back actions <--- of some different processes or  even ---> front action <----, which might be easier to comprehend. So , if you are an automobile, and you can travel to pretty much anyplace in the world within 1 hour, then, things might look a bit different, particularly if you are into variation and transformation.  So, for example, Ralphy will rarely go to Africa, unless, it's l...
