The Error of Expectations

Our constant change in relative position

creates error in expected cycles.

 

When the unexpected happens

memory fails

Awareness awakens

 

adjusts for survival

adjusts again

always tracking

 

The error of expectations.

When it touches down again, it must again establish its place on the coral reef.

Distortion of expected cycles by constant change

is the error of expectations

this is awareness

to change with change and thus survive.

Mind is perception, memory, response.

 

Perception, Memory, Response

 

Focus sunlight and sea

to form our crystal skeleton

 

Within This Magic Sea.

Sea shells, like this micro-mollusk, are the creations of the mind of the mollusk, each tiny detail recording another moment of life in the sea. © http://www.thread-of-awareness-in-chaos.com/order.html

 

Each one of us knows awareness

at our own interval of change

But we change together on many levels

at intervals too fast

too slow

for any one to know.

Culcita, the pin cushion starfish, changes its shape, but so slowly that one can't directly observe the motion..
 

Consciousness is communication between concepts existing

within the same interval of awareness.

Consciousness creates

and is created by

patterns of awareness

who guide us.
