The form of matter, determines its function. Water as ice provides coolness, and as steam it provides heat. The characteristic of the matter changes with it form, henceforth the function. Function is derived from characteristic that brings about utility and appropriateness. To derive heat out of ice, and coolness out of steam is a crazy thing to be. Yet, beneath the layers of form and functionality, the matter does not change in essence, only in the exterior.
Man, imbued with so much!
Knowledge, Emotion and Intuition.
Every man is but an amalgamation of the three.
Yet, we see millions, no, billions, seemingly unique snowflakes.
But we know, for a fact that all are one inside.
One that through three, becomes many.
Ah, such is beauty.
Water turns into ice when the environment turns cold, yet changes back to liquid when permitted. Water turns into steam when the environment turns hot, yet changes back to liquid when permitted.
Where do we stem, what is our native form? I believe that that is the question that seeks to bring peace in Man. We are ever-changing creatures, responding to stimuli and changing our forms to fit the function demanded. But when the function is done, and all is quiet, shouldn't the natural thing to happen is that we become that which is our native state? Yet, we see people scrambling to always remain in their forms when the function has changed, or forms that have become obsolete. Never resting. We have not found our centre!
Ah, what a pity, even the water has found its centre, and it has no mind of its own.
Knowledge, Emotion and Intuition.
Where do we place each of the three such that there is balance, in the centre...?
