We are linear, goal oriented creatures in a cyclical, circular, reciprocal, feedback generated reality.

I tend to think in terms of the balance and tension of yin and yang. Without the ups and downs, it's a flatline.

The point being, sometime you do want to swim upstream, if the goals are worth it.

The anarchies of desire, versus the tyrannies of judgement.

Energy radiating out, as structure coalesces in.

Like galaxies.
