Time, as part of space-time, is one of those basic physical universe realities. Or is it?  

I have just read the latest collection of articles from the Scientific American. The accounts were fascinating and rather diverse. But before I comment, let’s review my first engagement with time in the Taxonomy.

You may recall that I identified four experiences or realms of time in, of all places, the production of goodness. There is linear time: the time of the hero. I mean you and me in our daily struggle. Then there is cyclic time: the time More...

Caterpillars can turn into butterflies.  Amazing!  That is what I call transforming your life!  How do they do that?

Why can't I transform my life?  Why can't we all change and stop humanity's horrors?

What is their secret?  Those voracious and destructive caterpillars turn into beautiful delicate butterflies, flitting about pollinating flowers and crops.  Stupendous! 

From destruction to goodness.  (Of course, More...

If it seems hard to get your mind around what THEE is about you are not alone.  This Taxonomy is a «Big New Idea».  I had trouble grasping it for many, many years. 

I just kept going: finding useful patterns and making useful distinctions in a state of unknowing.  Now I am clearer.  Mainly due to banging my head against reality, first trying this and then trying that.

It must relate to my bête noir, Change-RL3.  As I noted in another blog, there are over 4 billion hits when you Google: "why people don't change". More...

You will read again and again in popular scientific articles that we human beings are not very good at handling probability.  It has become almost an article of faith.

John Kay, respected economist and academic, writes in the Financial Times (as noted here): “We do not often, or easily, think in terms of probabilities, because there are not many situations in which this style of thinking is useful."

Really?  Is that true? More...

Colin Wilson's 'The Outsider' was a great read.  But that was 1956.  Then human experience and purpose were subjects of novels, not a focus for everyday living.  Purpose has now invaded the blogosphere.  

That means it is rising in human consciousness.  It also means that an awareness that you must choose your purpose and have freedom to apply your will to it and be creative in achievement—all this is emerging too.
