Those whom the gods wish to destroy, first they make lucky.

Zuck is being tweeked. Actually it means metastatic.

Like a serious cancer. Facepox.

What you are describing are the lenses we see the world through, that are us and the world. Some people try to organize them, but they can only organize themselves. We are just the referee, not the players.

We are mobile organisms, so our sentience coalesces into a sequence of perceptions, in order to navigate.

This makes the passage of time, the point of the present, moving past to future, foundational to our sense of reality. The actual reality though, is that change turns future to past. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns.

There is no 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, so going past to future, while the patterns generated go future to past.

Energy drives the wave, while the fluctuations rise and fall.

Consciousness also goes past to future, while the perceptions, emotions and thoughts giving it form go future to past.

Though it is the digestive, respiratory and circulatory systems processing the energy, feeding the flame, while the central nervous system sorts the information. Signals from the noise.

So we tend to think of reality in terms of order and chaos, rather than energy and form.

Waves tend to either synchronize, which is centripetal, or harmonize, which is centrifugal. So there are nodes and networks, organisms and ecosystems, particles and fields, absolute and infinite.

The problem is that synchronization equates with order, as all the little waves coalece into one big wave, as lots of energy expressing very little information.

While harmonization seems chaotic, since all the little waves require lots of information to describe them, even though it's a larger equilibrium, thus harmony.

So all of civilization is about getting everyone listening to the same narratives, following the same rules, using the same measures, seeing through the same lenses, but this draws everyone into a monoculture, that can only spiral ever further into the vortex it defines itself by, from monotheistic religion, to the bottom line.

The logical fallacy of monotheism is that a spiritual absolute would be that essence of sentience, from which we rise, not an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell. The light, not the lens.

An ideal is aspirational, while the absolute is elemental. Treating ideals as absolute only empowers the close minded and confuses the open minded.

The difference between a market economy and capitalism is that markets need money to circulate, while the premise of capitalism is that it's a commodity to mine from society. The medium becomes the message. Though a medium is dynamic, while a store is static. For example, blood is a medium, fat is a store.

So the next time the object of focus in the front of your mind draws you in too deep, back up into the recesses, where you can start to climb out and the network will let you heal, then try again.

Galaxies are energy radiating out, as form coalesces in.

Our conscious state is the interface between the body and its world, so we fluctuate in the middle.
