Ph.D.s come from trees, trees do not come from Ph.D.s.

There has been a good amount time since I last wrote anything that wasn't related to work. Although, it seems anything worth doing requires at least some work. Quality suffers if the work input is low, and quantity suffers if the work input is either A, quickly exhausted, or B never put in to begin with.

Reaching a point where feelings of relaxation and settling in are common and present in copious amounts. Remaining poised and active is a completable goal that will require hardship, perseverance, tenacity, letting-go of habits, detaching from norms, giving to others, gratitude, appreciation, friendship and family support, and work, lots of hard work, some easy work, and a lot of busy work. Motivations are social, personal, physical, emotional, and spiritual blessings involving community support with emphasis on community outreach. Although both are viewed as measures of personal success, the latter also seems to be lacking and deficient resulting in poverty, lavishness, addiction, and crime. Preachy, melodramatic, demanding, passive-aggressive, and lazy. I am none of these things alone. Only at times. Being succinct and sequential is what is taught in school, but learned only by the wise. Ph.D.s come from trees, trees do not come from Ph.D.s. Our generation is somewhat backwards in our thinking. We have too much means and not enough thinking. In the 1920's quantum physics was in it's prime and Maxwell, Einstein, Heisenberg, Pauli, Planck, etc had the wits and mathematical foundation for understanding matter at a level much smaller and much larger than our own existence. Where fractions of a fraction of a fraction of an atomic nucleus interacts with itself like flint and stone, while we are larger our existence is not any greater. It is our timescale which deludes us. Like our concept of the united states as a democracy, we are easily deluded, we are indeed a public represented (republic) by a smaller group of well-paid, popular, and, for the most part, well-liked public (otherwise we wouldn't have voted them into office). How can we expect then our nation of all the unemployed, impoverished, employed and not well-liked people to be accurately represented? Vote them in to office!
Some may say, but they may want to blow up people and cause havoc, well then that opinion should be recognized and not ignored, for it will express itself in ways much more developed without responsible rebuke. Its only when you have forgotten the goal that you can accomplish it. Quotes that sound meaning.
