of how one is falling short of one's
objectives and ideal behavior

that one is not meeting the external standards
of the systems

“Hypothetical sphere, with dynamic dimensionality. We will ignore the dynamics that cause the sphere to increase in size. The volume is expressed as a wave on the surface with the fundamental frequency representing a point at the center of the sphere this wave is equal across the entire surface. Every other point inside of the sphere is represented on the surface by a frequency that rises as each point nears the surface. The surface behaves like a hologram. The quanta, or discreteness, lives in the ratios and as the resolution changes so too does the dimensionality of the forces involved, gravity being the most course grained. The unification of the forces can be described as a computational fractal dimensionality.”

“Hysteria and degeneration have always existed; but they formerly showed themselves sporadically, and had no importance in the life of the whole community.

“Hysteria! And grief and bitterness. That's what goes on. Not satisfied that our fighters evacuated the city, the enemy went after their women and children whom they left behind in the refugee camps of Sabra and Shatila, slaughtered them, and left their bodies stacked in grotesque piles in the muddy lanes, fly-covered, rotting in the sun. They went after our Palestine Research Center the repository of our culture and history in exile, whose treasures we had been collecting since the day we left Palestine, looted it then burned it to the ground. Fifteen thousand of our people, including boys under the age if twelve and men over the age of eighty, were picked up and put in a concentration camp called Ansar. Our community in Lebanon, half a million men, women, and children found itself suddenly severed from institutions (educational, medical, cultural, economic, and social) they had depended on for their everyday living, which the enemy destroyed. Our fighters, the mainspring of our national struggle, were shipped to thre deserts of Algeria, the outback of Sudan, and the scorching plain of Yemen. Our leadership sought refuge in Tunisia. And when the choked psyche of our nation gasped for air, some months later, we lunged atat each other in civil war, because we had failed our people and ourselves. Our promises had proved illusory.”
