Opposition can be your friend. Opposition can be the fire that tempers the better sword, as well as the ice that cools a fiery temper. Don't ever run from it; learn from it! The Cedar Post

Quote:- Optimal's logo reads: The Future Is Now. That annoys me because if the future is now, where is the present?

Quote:- Optimism is radical. It is the hard choice, the brave choice. And it is, it seems to me, most needed now, in the face of despair—just as a car is most useful when you have a distance to close. Otherwise it is a large, unmovable object parked in the garage. These days, the safest way for someone to appear intelligent is being skeptical by default. We seem sophisticated when we say we don’t believe and disingenuous when we say we do. History and fable have both proven that nothing is ever entirely lost. David can take Goliath. A beach in Normandy can turn the tide of war. Bravery can topple the powerful. These facts are often seen as exceptional, but they are not. Every day, we all become the balance of our choices—choices between love and fear, belief or despair. No hope is ever too small.

Quote:- Options abound in our world. You can choose where to stay and how to stay there. Where you are Today is as a result of the option you took yesterday and no doubt where you will be Tomorrow is embedded in your option Today. Choose right; choose wisely, Take THE BEST OPTION. The Best Option will deliver your inheritance to you. It will change your state and deliver to you, your brand new estate. You do not blame anyone for failing to do it right the first time. You accept the blame. The Best Option will cause you to get it right the first time and always.

Quote:- Or maybe I should say a few things that I like likeIn that same way that in the 7th grade I knewThat there was a difference between how to like a sandwichAnd how I like liked Katie Elbin’s pale blonde pigtails.So..I like like Vietnamese Coffee and the long wait for it to dripDrops down into my clear glass coffee mug with penguins on it.I like like that the penguins playfully dance as the black of my coffeeMeets the creaminess of condensed milk.I like like the way that Gatsby read when I was twelveAnd thought that Romanticism and the early twentiesWould be as romantic in my early twenties.As if a field of daisies would be the same as the field of Daisy’s.However, I like like the melancholic tone of my chemicals as wellWhen they become overly emotive.Haven’t you heard the news that we’re dead?Wouldn’t it be grand to go exactly as we planned?I like like wondering if wandering is a wanderlustOr just a wanderlust?I think this was address by a Tribe Called QuestBut I’ve lost just who it is whom I was promised I could trust.I like like driving with a GPSNot playing it too close to the chestOr relying on all the Redbull and Slim Jim’sWhich my passenger-self digests.And I like like a gentle sadness like a reminder I can feelThe realizations that this is all just so ever gosh golly really realThat my dream board has visions of what I can doAnd that what absolutely matters is only relatively true.

Quote:- Order Out of Chaos ... At the right temperature ... two peptide molecules will stay together long enough on average to find a third. Then the little trio finds a fourth peptide to attract into the little huddle, just through the random side-stepping and tumbling induced by all the rolling water molecules. Something extraordinary is happening: a larger structure is emerging from a finer system, not in spite of the chaotic and random motion of that system but because of it. Without the chaotic exploration of possibilities, the rare peptide molecules would never find each other, would never investigate all possible ways of aggregating so that the tape-like polymers emerge as the most likely assemblies. It is because of the random motion of all the fine degrees of freedom that the emergent, larger structures can assume the form they do. Even more is true when the number of molecules present becomes truly enormous, as is automatically the case for any amount of matter big enough to see. Out of the disorder emerges a ... pattern of emergent structure from a substrate of chaos.... The exact pressure of a gas, the emergence of fibrillar structures, the height in the atmosphere at which clouds condense, the temperature at which ice forms, even the formation of the delicate membranes surrounding every living cell in the realm of biology -- all this beauty and order becomes both possible and predictable because of the chaotic world underneath them....Even the structures and phenomena that we find most beautiful of all, those that make life itself possible, grow up from roots in a chaotic underworld. Were the chaos to cease, they would wither and collapse, frozen rigid and lifeless at the temperatures of intergalactic space.This creative tension between the chaotic and the ordered lies within the foundations of science today, but it is a narrative theme of human culture that is as old as any. We saw it depicted in the ancient biblical creation narratives of the last chapter, building through the wisdom, poetic and prophetic literature. It is now time to return to those foundational narratives as they attain their climax in a text shot through with the storm, the flood and the earthquake, and our terrifying ignorance in the face of a cosmos apparently out of control. It is one of the greatest nature writings of the ancient world: the book of Job.

Quote:- Ordinarily, I am the person who falls in love quickly and somewhat inappropriately and then goes on to destroy what is a good thing. That's always been my style. So, you know: I get it. And I feel right now the way I imagine all those guys felt with me. And I have to say, for the first time in my life, I feel something approaching compassion for them.
