My eighth year, that is. But that was 55 years and 4 current teenagers ago.
During all these years, my life-theme question has been, “How can I help?”
The first answer I received from my enculturation process,
but, I have come to believe,
coincidentally received from noticing our natural systemic environment,
as both our ongoing search for the Golden Fleece
and our ongoing research into what are the optimized dimensions
and dynamics
for following the tao of our transcultural thesis,
the Golden Rule of Prime Relationship,
do unto others
as you would have them
do unto you,
or
treat others the way you would be grateful to be treated,
because we’re all in our mess together.
So, my Golden Fleece pilgrimage has been about cooperative research
into what could we optimally become if we fully understood its universal wisdom?
Which led to my second, or antithesis, question,
in this dialectic therapeutic quest,
How do I want to be treated?
And who am I that is not Other?
And why do I feel so sure about that?
More recently I realized that some of these questions become more secondary
and perhaps not entirely well advised,
and, well, also sort of self-referencing
if we assume that P=NP
and that global, perhaps universal
electromagnetic and thermodynamic balance
within four equivalent dimensions of spacetime
forms our right-elder brained memory function,
as explicated, incarnated,
in implicate-ordered RNA regenerative information
systemic and organic
and permacultural structure.
Our interdependently networking Earth’s
Yang balancing Yin harmonies
have not stopped singing,
and ecologically economizing,
since.
And yet, my thesis question remains:
How can we help each other,
in the integrity of each moment’s eternally incarnating
positive potential?
Sometimes the best policy is to stay out of each others’ way,
but usually active peace calls us toward mutually mentoring
our ways of becoming
EarthTribe eco-identified.
