Thanks for visiting, Natty.  

An empty hospital is probably ripe for many intriguing, sorrowful, and shocking strands of verse.  

An uncle had just recently died, and I was thinking about how his dirt floor workshop was all that's really left of him; others' memories of us being perversions within perversions of reality, anyway.  I thought, he leaves the future universe to us, like a thoughtless will, and whatever little or vast portion we decide to take part in is doled out in an unavoidable inheritance. And like a will and memory, there is no solid reality to it, except what other people choose to do because of it.  But the workshop is really there.

that makes more sense to me know.

your abstractions always make me wonder.

I feel I often take them in and turn them into this strange pseudo reality.

I think empty hospitals are perfect. Let all the poor souls go home. Let me go home and be a human and not a nurse.
I'm very happy being out of that world.

I'm sorry to hear about your uncle.

I like that analogy. I like that you found something solid

Thank you for explaining. I love both sides...the abstractions and the though processes.

Whoa.  That means one of us is either improving or regressing (or both, perhaps).  

Thanks for stopping in, Pip.

Or maybe I'm in a more exploratory
frame of mind?

That's a fortunate frame of mind to be in.

It's the frame of mind I tend to remain in, but
in reading of and formulating my own opinions
on Social Evolution, Religion and other related
topics, such as - www.huffingtonpost.com/bobby-a…

Which leads to the thought: If even the basic
particle processes bits of information - 'If this -
do that', and as systems grow in complexity,
ala atom, molecule, element, to cells and up
to basic 'living' creatures - eventually the vast
amount of information continuously experienced
through expanding senses has to overwhelm
even increasingly sophisticated processing
abilities of expanded 'if this - do that' complexes.
Is this the point where proto-consciousness
arises, simply because it is desperately needed
for efficient survival and evolution?

And, considering IIT, what does the possibly
conscious universe begin to explicitly do to
continue the advancement of evolution, if that
indeed is it's guiding principle, and if it has
evolved in its dispersed 'self' any active abilities?

Is 'evolutionary need' the guiding principle
of the cosmos? 

Which leads to further considerations, such as
this - meaningoflife.tv/videos/35025
Note: Bob Wright's two sites and his books
are full of fascination, all built upon scientific
research and the input of hundreds of the
best minds in the world. Caution - you may
become hooked.

In life, there are few 'certainties', but endless
'theoretical possibilities'... llp
