AI—especially Large Language Models (LLMs) such as Anthropic's Claude, Open AI’s Chat GPT, Google’s Gemini, Microsoft’s Copilot, Musk’s Grok (etc.) ... are becoming mainstays of daily use in many people's lives.

To simplify is a thing to which most of us aspire. Anything that will bring some clarity in this increasingly noisy world…we’re looking for it. This is a noble ideal. Of course, not all things are simple. When we over-simplify across the board—even on those matters which are inherently complex—the simplistic solutions generated tend to fail us. There is a time for stark simplicity, but we also must know when more nuanced optionalit...
Yes or no. Save your explanations. It’s my way or the highway. Black/white thinking—hardly an uncommon style, needless to say. It is not stoic, nor elegant in its simplicity: is is merely lazy. It is a problem, it certainly creates problems…and though the tendency has been around since time immemorial—such callous thoughtlessness should not be well-regarded. It is not a good way to be.

The unyielding, the proud beings of stone. We know these people. They are not rare. They are in our families; they are at our places of employment. We elect many of them to positions of importance. But should we? Is this a quality we actually want in our leaders?

What is the ancestral link to our current life? How are we to honor the past? What are we to learn from these countless preceding lives that—quite literally—allowed for the formation of our own?

Science is one of the major world religions. The notion would be blasphemy to some. For others, though—science is their exclusive faith. Is it enough?

Inequality, all of the impositions that render us unequal in this way or that, suspend the world in a perpetual misery. Separateness and tribalism reign paramount, while freedom for all remains at bay. It is up to us whether we will choose to embrace new priorities and attitudes.

There are some ironies when it comes to enemies. They offer us a sense of contrast. They help us know that which we don’t want—and that which we don’t want to be. In this sense, they are of service to our own development.

If we are to end by our own hand, that will be the result of intolerance. If we are to continue onward—tolerance will be needed in ever greater measure. Our future depends on a deepening commitment to the embodiment of this quality.

Self-education delivers us to true higher learning. No outer university can compare with the insights derived from one’s own, self-sustained efforts—once a desire for such takes hold.

Authenticity is the domain of an original. They still allow for personal influence, yet a mature inner integration always issues the final verdict. Concern is solely for what is right—not that which is fashionable, or easily accessible.

Ultimately, we must dig ourselves out of the ruts into which we fall—physical, mental, emotional, philosophical. We might fall in of our own accord; we may be enticed in, perhaps even kicked in (metaphorically). Nevertheless, it is up to us to discern clearly now—to see where we are, and to rise from the ashes of our own self-undoing.

Societal cohesion is being torn in two by polarization. Extremism is intensifying. We must remember that our essence, decency and humanity emanate from a common, central core—not the far fringes.

The nonconformist has an important role to play in transcending those stagnant paradigms which no longer serve us. We need these disrupters to show us new ways to solve old and entrenched problems.
