Expansion is a curious subject for a wide variety of
people. Expansion calls for a variety of
interpretation. Expansion is the sole vision of the one who has it. So what is
the cause call and reckoning for this action verb? Expansion has business
implications, personal implications, and societal implications. But what is expansion actually.
Like most things in this life under the human gaze and
perception it functions like a story. As pattern recognizing creatures the
pattern we are most familiar with is story. Often human beings adapt to visual
and sensory stimulus with explanation. Indeed all of the structures of society,
language, social norms, sense of wrong doing is from an established pattern
pulled from stories created by human minds.
So they have limitations. They must make logical sense and sometimes
logical sense has a very limited perception and almost none of the facts.
As fallible creatures we have no choice but to function in a
limited perception based ideology. The hardest thing for a human mind to give
up is a pattern once it is accepted as fact and universal law. This is why religion still factors so highly
as well as perceptions on gender, race and socialization. No matter how
advanced the society its failure bursts forth from the same spring.
Misunderstanding and false patterns.
These patterns revolve around the relationship with assumed
power and brilliance based on wealth. As beings that have a list of actual
needs to enable life the principle of wealth has always held sway in human
hearts and minds. Wealth in its purest
intent is there to remove chains and provide freedom. Often the wealthy find that their wealth just
becomes an even harder set of chains to break than their previous condition.
Freedom in its purest form is usually anonymity. True wealth from having nothing at all. Yet
our patterns tell us that there must be merit in wealth. Merit in achieving and
attaining. The wealthy themselves take on the role as superior human as they use
assets to back ideologies mankind has wanted to believe in forever. In an
attempt to validity their claims and ideas they attempt to shape the world as a
safe. In both phrase and actuality.
The nature of nature is balance and flow. When imbalances
occur we call them natural disasters. Volcanoes from too much pressure,
hurricanes from imbalances of air and heat. Stories tell me a story. Stories
have a beginning, a middle and an end. A
decent story makes you feel something. A great story inspires you to build your
own stories.
