Week 5 Reflections



If the world were symmetrical… we would not be here! Everything would be balanced (out), and our world as we know it would not exist.  I am going to paraphrase Susan Weed who said that our pursuit of health is a continual process of guiding ourselves toward balance. We are never balanced as long as we live! When we finally find balance, we die.
Bless the kaons for illuminating our asymmetrical world. These sneaky mesons and their CP violations show us that we have much to learn about our universe! The standard model is a model of the moment we are living, but it is bound to become a relic of history as our levels of awareness expand.
I was so happy to talk about sacred geometry this week. It is so pleasing and beautiful to observe. The examples of sacred geometry are the fingerprints of the greater forces working in the universe. The connections between sacred geometry and physics are that the forces we study in physics are shaping our bodies, our galaxy, and life on this planet in this sacred pattern.

Week 9 Relfections

My E-Prime Day This morning I awoke at 7am, according to the widely agreed upon concept of time in San Francisco, CA. I poured water into a kettle and turned the dial on the stove until a flame ignited on the burner. When the kettle made a noise that I call a whistle, I turned the dial to discontinue the gas supply to the flame. I removed jars filled with dry herbs from a kitchen cabinet and added them to a vessel with the hot water to make tea.   I ate food. I walked outside of the building and down the street. I stopped walking at the space on the street marked by signs as a bus stop. When a bus marked 30 stopped next to the curb and the doors opened, I stepped up onto the bus and sat down in a seat that did not contain a human. I removed the notes I took in Physiology from the bag I bought with me and read about the respiratory system in the human body.   When the bus stopped and the doors opened at my intended destination, I departed from the vehicle and walked to t...

Week 1 Reflections

I really enjoyed the conversation about time, specifically the delin eation between M -Time and P-Time. I have felt held hostage by tim e, sometimes with a loathing for the concept . I have also felt a pang of self-consciousness about my preoccupation with time when the people around me seem indifferent to schedules and deadlines. Hall's description breaks down the time paradigms elegantly and helped me to see the contra dictory views w ith which I approach time. I see points on both sides of the chart that I have tried to fit into one view of time, leading to frustration. I strongly associate the P-Time, and for years have dreamt of the scenario where I buil d the foundation o f my life in accordance with those values. Some of the deta ils include living close r to natural cyc les and working for myself . However, we live in a western socie ty and M-time rules. I adhered to M-time to make it through all of my formal education , many jobs and even to strengthen relationship...

Week 8 Reflections

Newton's Laws and me: Newton’s first law states that a force must be applied to change the state of an object. An object in motion will remain in motion at a constant speed and velocity unless acted on by a force. An object at rest will remain at rest until acted upon by a force. A force must be applied to change the trajectory. I relate to this when I think of how it is I bring myself to change my state of being. I sometimes use stress to motivate be to change my state and become more productive with schoolwork. Emotions feel like a force that is acting on me to get me to change my speed or direction. The second law states that acceleration in directly proportional to the force applied to the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. I relate to this when I think of how much more difficult it is to get started on a large project versus a small task. Or how much more force it takes to get a group of people to do an activity together than to rally one or ...
