Do you need a hug dude? You seem to go after people who try to get along here. Don't worry, you are loved.

I'm only attempting to get the mirror of my mind to be less like a funhouse mirror, and more like the Hubble telescope mirror. As the mirror improves, so does its reflection of Reality, but as you say, the individual (individual mind) undergoes transformation, and hopefully in the direction of better and better resolution.
"For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known." - 1 Corinthians 13:12

I used to fear the funhouse nature of the Universe and so I searched for order. Now I'm not so sure. I'm more relaxed, less afraid, and watchin the movie play out before these tired but amazed eyes.
