I had an idea a while ago that each person is it's own mathematical equation which just gets more complex as experience (time) goes on but that there are only a limited amount of answers per equation
born, 2 parents, no siblings, positive school experience, parent died, lost house etc etc
(a+b2+0s+s(+)+bminus1+hminus etc etc)
verses
born, 1 parent, 2 sisters, negative school experience, positive step parent, addition of financial security etc etc
(a+b1+2s+s(-)+bplus1+£plus etc etc)
But that if you far enough into the specifics of each personality and each experience and the mindset of the subject that there must be a thread that connects it into a more simplistic equation, that the gravity of the people around them can pull them into other mindsets and influence the outcomes of said subject.
But also that if you include 'self-awareness' into the equation that it can change much of (but not all) the equation. Presently we may call this self reflection or therapy, or indeed any moment that makes you reflect and think on previous moments that may have influenced your present state
Within 'self-reflection' I could possibly say that after my many years of service it becomes very much a mirror looking into a mirror into a mirror, the image can distort and you can persuade yourself that a new image emerges, but that really it most probably is just a distortion of your own ideas and that it does appear to be limited, even if within the constructs of infinity.
An outside object, self-conscious but not necessarily self-aware (though that would most likely help), adds to the self-envisioned mirror reality that one has trapped oneself within. It can help stretch the boundaries and give perspectives not previously considered or seen properly, or considered to the appropriate extent.
Of course any object being thrown into this mirrored reality will most likely undergo an extreme amount of scrutiny and testing of ideas as the object has generally only had itself to look at and learn from for a nondescript amount of time
In scrutinizing the 'alien being' within it's own worldview the subject can then unintentionally (but consciously) destroy the larger pieces of this being and reduce it to a simplistic form of its original self depriving it of a full existence within the subjects world, and in so doing, deprive itself of learning more from said being.
For the subject it can become likened to a desert created by itself. Where rain falls, it's sun evaporates it, if any roots grow, the scavengers pull them up to eat them. Only the truly hardy and dedicated survive, but simultaneously even a desert realises a desert is no place to lay down to grow.
Cycles persist, mirrors reflect, a 1 infiltrates a 0 every now and then.
Within the 0's the 1's become more familiar
Where there was no life there eventually will be some but the journey is not easy and it takes many little deaths to provide even a single one

Commex
I was in my late teens when the internet started building, coming from an age of cds and physical photographs but what is amazing if you think about it is that if the digital world collapsed in 10 years where most culture is now based (digital non physical music, digital non physical photos, all writing that only exists on the internet etc) we would be reduced back to the late 90s/early 2000s. Anyone looking back at this age would be missing 80%+ of our cultural input, these past 15 years would almost be all but wiped out.
Imagine being a child growing up in 2080 after a digital collapse and trying to piece the history together
Hmmm

(Disclaimer: From my own experiences and no-one elses: as all this blog is)
The adult psychotic split could be explained from the difference of a childs-like acceptance of all things, ie. a child's experience is 'what is' and not 'what is not'.
All things that happen as a child are just accepted into your reality, but when you become more aware and have certain things embedded into your ego consciousness then you have a 'what is' and a 'what is not' reaction to new experiences.
So now I am older, each new experience is in battle with the many previous years' experience, and these can cause disharmony within my brain, there can be a 'free' me which is open to everything and also a 'challenging' me which questions any new experience and views it as a threat.
Therefore, becoming unhinged or scared of a new experience is more likely to have a stronger impact because there are more 'me's' trying to understand it.
What needs to be remembered is that a child's acceptance is one of the most beautiful things we can have and so any troubles amounted from new experiences resulting in a certain kind of psychosis is actually a positive and welcoming thing, even if what it makes us feel is terrified.
A child wouldn't be terrified, it would just see what was. Time and experience gives us a certain view of what should be, and what shouldn't be, and this helps us grow in many ways but then can also harm us from growing in others.

For the first time ever I think that technology has really superseded human thought. Look at the internet.
Really look at it. Pretty much everything that anyone has ever thought or ever wanted to express is on there now, but what do people do? They'll just limit themselves to their own thought patterns, visit whatever 5 sites they deem worthy of their time and not really look beyond that.
This is not a judgement, I do it myself. But wow.
If anything has shown how limited the mind can be and how imagination can be and how narrow minded human beings can be the internet has really put us in our place.
It is surely the biggest anthropologist experiment that has ever happened:
'What human beings are'
We are all simple and incapable of really grasping the enourmousness of the universe. Even within one that we all helped to create we still look towards masters and corporations to tell us what to do with it. It's quite sad. But more than that. If we can really grasp our limitations and see it as a way to grow and a way to expand then it will surely still be a helpful assistant.
The age is still new. We haven't even yet begun to experiment with it and what its capabilities are, we started as naive inventors, growing into mass induced corporations, and now are in the subordinate role of following what we are told.
But underneath all of that there is still a certain kind of thing we may call freedom.
People can still make choices, they can still choose to explore the outer realms of the internet and find great art; film, music, photography, words, that can still inspire us to a new sense of reality.
What the internet has shown is much like the drug/hippydom/lsd age that the 60's gave us.
There are countless possibilities, but how many people really want those possibilities? Mostly none.
Humans are still weak and in need of being taken care of, they still want to be told what to do.
Bur someday there will be a breakthrough of people saying:
'There is no one. There is no one but us. And we write the story. And those who are in power have no imagination. It is up to the rest of us to create a story worth living. We are not living it now'
