The Journals

It may surprise you to learn that the journey to the Mathematical Bridge was not as beautiful and straight forward as my parables depict. That’s the downside of the use of allegory, metaphor and parable – these great stories allow us to smooth out the mundane and the unpleasant to get to the end result.

Unfortunately, allegories may prevent us from truly developing an understanding of time. Namely, the difference between real time vs story time.

In our stories, it only takes a few Acts to get to the point of the story. However, in our real lives the time from realization to resolution can be anywhere between 30 nanoseconds and 30 years.

As you cycle through the phases of life and reflect on your own causes and effects, you begin to realize time behaves more as a Lorenz attractor (complete with Pitchfork bifurcation) than a straight line.

Like many others on this Certain journey, it took a tragedy to force the climb out of the cave and begin to recognize my own patterns.

There is no one size fits all line of logic to turn to. And sometimes for some people it takes losing everything including their minds to see that it’s either rise up or drown in your own misery.

No matter how “educated” you may be, life presents “a posteriori” experiences that “a priori” knowledge does not prepare you for. A chirality that will not be ignored.

Now, you can remain on the manmade scientific line of thought and take what is offered as a reasonable solution or you do something better.

I am scientist, and I believe in holding the scientific line of thought. However, in life or death situations, Occam’s RazorIs a heuristic device used to guide decision-making by prioritizing simplicity over complexity. The principle states that among competing hypotheses, More becomes the principle of best fit.

So I used my talent.

Abusus Non Tollit UsumAbusus Non Tollit Usum is a Latin phrase meaning “Abuse does not take away use.”In other words, the misuse of something More
