The box is form. Reality is that dichotomy of energy and form. Energy radiates out, as form coalesces in. Like galaxies.

We have the digestive, respiratory and circulatory systems processing the energy driving us on, while the central nervous system sorts through the forms precipitating out, further organizing and distilling them. Signal from the noise.

Societies are the raw social energies bubbling up, as civil and cultural forms coalesce in. Youth and age, liberal and conservative.

Time is not so much the point of the present moving past to future, as it is change turning future to past. There is no literal dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present, to inform and drive it. Causality and conservation of energy. Cause becomes effect.

Energy is "conserved," because it is the present. Its changing form creates time.

So the energy goes past to future, while the forms go future to past. As consciousness goes past to future, while thoughts and emotions go future to past.

Like galaxies, the energy radiates toward infinity, while the form coalesces toward equilibrium. Both entropic and diametrically opposed.

The anarchy of desire, versus the tyranny of judgement. The heart and the head. Yin and yang.

Make your box a tool, not a god. Like language.
