Seasons of Life and Death

Life or death is a left-brain dominant cultural assumption, While right-brain is more comfortable with life and death, health and pathology, nuance of co-arising dipolarity. Environmentalists shout for sustainability! Ecologists calmly advocate polycultural energy resilience to recreate wealthier dynamic ecosystems While warm psychologists and embracing psychiatrists listen for co-relational resonance within and between healthy cooperative ego-systems. But, resonance between egos not so robustly democratically healthy, might also develop unfortunately viral, vicious feedback loops of negative, toxic communication festering monocultural missions of supremacist degenerativity; more of a persistently narcissistic weed patch than a resonant right-brain and resilient left-brain ego/eco-system. I recently read that viruses can be as dead static zero-dynamic absent exchange of energy, as a tiny pebble, but, when placed in a friendly organic environment, come back to life, rebirth resonance, if not life/death recycling resilience. Physicists, sounding more like cool metaphysicists, report subatomic particles are affluently indestructible and effluently destructible, depending on whether we observe as a functional part of a whole or as a structured whole of an energy flowing past through future part. Immortal because an unchanging co-related potentiality within any one static moment of unimage-able time, and yet mortal as a constantly changing process of co-acclimating energy exchange, transitioning into transformation into retransitioning. Resilient when spatially imaged as individual function, secular, autonomous, independent sub-structure co-relational constancy within a linear line of temporal events, not resonantly sacredly fulfilled, sufficient, satisfying as complete viral extending family into spatial interdependence. Resonantly alive when resilience flows toward positive healthy, co-relational intent, and not confused with persistent fragmentation flowing out into dispersed despaired evaporating lose/lose potentialities, monoculturing weed patch autocratic self-aggrandizing intent, Which matures into rabidity, feeds on our own young, future generations, and, finally, on our own extremities until democratic viral death remains autonomously, irresiliently silent still without hope for life or even further death of life-giving species. Which may all have something, and nothing, to do with why the most positively viral economic and political and social and psychological and analogical and ethological and metaphysical enlivening environmentalists resonantly speak up and out!! for optimizing sustained dynamic co-relational co-arising co-present resilience of cooperative intent!! to optimize all climates advocating multicultural exclamation points!! of life and death and repurposing life...
