And so, fighting and violence.

 So, this starts out with a paint stained wall, in the physics building at U.M.D. sometime in late 1968 or early 1969. It was a wall with a door, and I can't say whether or not it was temporary or what might be called more permanent, but it was wood.  And so , on the wall was written in paint, " The urge to destroy is a creative urge. ".   And so, I actually have thought about that more, over time, than much of what I learned in physics  then.  And of course, I was not necessarily the brightest bulb in that barrel, because oddly, at that time there were many bright bulbs. 

Nevertheless it may have a lot to do with violence and fighting.  We all know , generally, we will fight for what we believe in.  For example, if you see a spoon on the table, just. perhaps out of reach.  You might stretch for that spoon, and you might get it or not, but you are now fighting for what you believe.  Your belief is that you can reach that spoon, but generally in this situation there will be little of what you might call violence.  

And so, you now have that question, >> how to I fight for my beliefs << and not resort to violence ?  Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. , did suggest this notion of non-violence, which might seem extremely radical except that Paul DIrac came up with the " notion " of antimatter in the 1920s and we have been living with that, ever since  

Of course, in nature we do observe , violence as we perceive it,  But certainly, we also note, that animals will often avoid violence and at least try and minimize it.  So what we might observe to be violent from our point of view, may not be that so much.

So, we might ask , was Ralphie violent in his action toward Messy ?  I am going to say no.  First off , I believe at 4 years Ralphie was actually engaging in some form of play, meaning like game, However, I can't say that for sure, because, I just don't know Ralphie , all that well.

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...
