Live every moment...Take every breath

I know I already posted a blog today, but the hours in this computer lab have created an experience worth two days of information. Its 8 o'clock and I sit in this computer lab staring at the screen, comparing this focal relationship over and over again....trying to figure out why x --> y.....WHY does x --> y???? I take a break to read up about my brothers adventures in Africa, then read my mothers recent post of stories of her children....and sit in awe.

She claims she learns from me, but how is that possible when I learned what I know from her? How is it that she can be so moved by us when I still look to her for answers and comfort? Then I figured it out....it's not what we learn from each other, but what gain from others in the process. Then to go even further; it's what we do with that information, how we interpret it, what charge we give it (positive or negative), how we use it to change ourselves, and finally, how we present it to others. So I finally come to the result that the chain of information isn't as easy as x --> y.....just because x DOES affect y, doesn't mean it affects it in its entirety, but its created by all the variables in between. How x is conditioned, how y is compacted, and how variables intervene in the road to get from x to y....

Its 8 at night and I FINALLY comprehend the relation of variables and their place within a focal relationship....maybe sociology will be helpful after-all :)
