New Year's Day is a time when many people make resolutions to stop this or that, to be this or that, to do this or that, and in a few weeks time, they've forgotten all about it. That's okay. It's raining, anyway, not the best weather for changing the world, but, I've got to do it anyway, so, this being the 66th time I've been around the opening of a New Year, I say hello to this one and I wish it a very healthy existence, as I wish all things with live in this world and in the ones I'm not privileged to visit on a daily basis. I resolve to continue. That is my New Year's Resolution. I will continue until I've got it right and no longer need to do so. Then, maybe I'll continue just so I can drop a hint now and then to other beings who've had the same sort of convoluted journey that I've had.
I'm not a theologian, nor a nuclear physicist, but I know enough about both spheres to realize they are one and the same, in the same way that anything which seeks to explain nature is the same thing. I've really enjoyed the emergence of quantum physics into the mainstream of thinking and being these past twenty or thirty years. The deeper our knowledge of the natural world gets, the deeper our understanding of the supernatural world gets. Super becomes sub and sub super in many respects. In a sense, it all comes down to perception. We can now see things we couldn't see before, neurons, galaxies, universes, quanta. The more we see, the more we are led into the recursive world of vortexes, imaginary and otherwise, which gives us the ability to create, understand, teach, and learn some more. I like it.
The world didn't end with the Mayan Calendar. Or maybe it did. Who cares? I'm still imagining and perceiving and, yes, since it's Winter, eating. That's a Happy New Year. I hope yours goes as well!
