Can you see how this understanding of opposites can change the world?
My desire is for the reader to truly question. The question of opposites needs to be seriously addressed.
I realize that fostering opposition is a tactic of politicians and corporations as per the motto, "divide and conquer."
The question is, when do we learn to "unite and prosper." In saying unite, I am NOT saying standardized. I am saying that we need to see our self in the opposition. I am not a fan of Burger King's "Have it your way"! Pickle or no pickle does not cut it in my book (and hopefully not the reader's).
We need to be more a tuned to Nature. By Nature, I am referring to birds, bees and coconut trees. I am also speaking to essence. To use an example that may speak to the reader, we may say, 'Rob Kall's nature is reflected in his bottom up philosophy' (oh, how I want to mess with Rob by saying "bottom's up!")
Here in Maine, I often go out for walks in the woods with my dog Sophie. (The term dog backwards is God so I gave her one of the names of God, Sophia or Wisdom).
What I notice in the woods is a wide variety of vegetation, trees, bugs and other creatures. I also notice various "microclimates" that are associated with trees or a grassy lawn. Going from the yard and into the woods in the summer entails an experience of a noticeable temperature drop.
These temperature and vegetation varieties effects what one sees as bugs and other creatures. Thus, we need to realize that within any ecosystem, there are a wide variety of microclimates, birds, bees, insects and animals.
This brings me to a question that Rob asked a couple of years back, "What is it you want the reader to do?" My answer is, "question." I do not write to get people to totally agree with me. What I want from those that read are questions. Questions help us to understand the universal process, or what Lao Tzu calls "The Way".
