Lawyers and Scientists; Chaos and Order
Lawyers, even the most brilliant, execute their skilled craft through a weaving of technicalities; this is their edge, to know the details, to be intimate with every bump in the road, and to maneuver through the smoothest course. Facts exist, which in a world of common sense would stand, solitary and solid, upon their own principles, but the attorney seeks the anomalous exception, the detour toward upholding, exonerating, appealing, proper objection, and most proper objective. While justice is the principle, the objective is the law, with all of its technicality, implication, and application. Its fabric can be as simple as linen or as ornate as brocade.
Scientists address facts, as observed, relate their apparent state, and proscribe laws to explain them. The nuance of knowledge is based upon the perspective of holding to principle and, oftentimes, finding its explanation in, again, the anomalous exception. Thus, even black holes are discovered.
The world may be seen as trillions of things, with billions of laws, but we are all driven toward one principle. In any dimension, there is countless abundance of apparent chaos. There is, also, order, but we have to desire to detect it, acknowledge it when we observe it, and act upon it when it is recognized. It is the unity we all seek. It is born of the anomaly that is obscured by the disorder of details in a complex and chaotic environment.
Stop now. Look at it.
It stares you in the face while distraction assaults you. It asks you to put the faith that you have in yourself into others. It asks you to put your weakness out there, as well. Where you are strong, by sharing, another can find his own. Others may help you in this regard.
The one unifying body, the language of the cosmos, the order of even the most chaotic elements, can be expressed by a single word: music. No dogma. No hype. No denial of its existence. It is form; it is action; it is principle. It just is.
MyGigNet asks a lot from you. It doesn't ask for it all at once. All that is asked is to do a little, then to do a little more. Most importantly, though, is where it starts.
Desire to see it. Know it when you see it. Then act.
