What if we are all part of a massive virus , What if people are the virus of the Earth ......

What if the World is a interconnected living organism in its own right ....

What if it protects itself from destruction ..... by masses of interconnected systems

A bit like a giant Brain ..........

I saw a Ted video showing the parts of a brain being examined for how it interconnects and the realisation that trees were very similar in structure to .......

Connectonomes ...... we are connectonomes ....... this was the speech by a professor

I think this is important very well spoken gentleman Link

Its strange at times what do I require to survive

As long as there is food on the table and a fire in Winter oh! and of course human contact sort of over the ADSL ....

So nearly everything else is a bonus ..... running water ,,,, fresh straw on the ground.

Winter is over now I think so even fire is not really required .....

Its May already ..... nearly half way through another year .....

Achievements .... many small ones - but nothing major ....

Really looking forward to a friend coming over for a couple of weeks ....

If the weather is good maybe we will get out and about a bit - we will see ....

Would like to see more of Vannes and go to Quiberon too swimming off the coast if its warm ...

____________________________________________________________

Ok May approaches - Holiday Season ....

The time to look forward to something other than the same four walls you usually look at .....


So where do you go and why .... ?

New Year

The New Year is almost here .....

The time to make more decisions .....


(Where to go - What to do ......)


A New Years resolution is a start ,,,,,,,

New Years Resolution was to become more self sufficient ......

Unlucky for some .... but lucky it went without a problem ......

Freedom within the social bounds we set each other .....

Boundaries .........

There are bounds that are set in society ....... who keeps track of these bounds

Do we understand the implications of them.

We as people fought for freedom ......

Are we Free ...... ?

_____________________________________________________________________________

To understand the boundaries - first we have to know when we make our individual - but important choices.

At what time in your life did you make a vital choice that was not already planned for you by your society.

_______________________________________________________________________________

So .....

We start life .....

We go to a School - usually set up by our society.

We learn about the World and get to understand Mathematics English Religion Geography

Now we get our Freedom to choose ...... what we want to do ...... within our Social Boundaries ......

We then get a job ..... if that is what we choose .....

We work for money (set by our society to what they consider we are worth)

We then retire

Which is when we really start to think - about the things we could not understand when we were younger

and a Final thing - we die ............ leaving behind what ?


_________________________________________________________________________________


So the question is who actually controls these boundaries now and do they work ........

or are they evolving out of control.

__________________________________________________________________________________

If they are controlled ..... do they lead us and Society somewhere better ?


How are they set up to reduce conflict - to ensure peoples lives are happy ones ,,,,,


Surely that's what matters to everyone ...... that we all have a good quality of life ........
_________________________________________________________________________________

So the question has to be asked ...... How can the system be improved ..... ?

Your answers would be of interest ........
