Finger Black
Granite, 15ft
The
Finger points to the basic law
of Life, namely, ‘Create or die’. If you create (i.e. via differential
contact), you are. If you don’t,
you
ain’t.
That which you have to create is difference.
After all, as scientists now tell us, “Only random events carry
instruction”. In other words, only difference connects (i.e. touches)
and therefore makes real. Or, "Only difference makes ... a difference".
That's because sameness is compressed out, hence cannot strike (and
make real).
Consequently, if you
ain’t a bit of a
random
event, you can’t strike/connect/touch. And if you can’t strike/touch,
you
ain’t. The
random bit (of difference) you want to be,
hence the way you want to strike/ connect/touch, is your free choice.
It is by inventing yourself as a random bit and connecting to an
alternate random bit that you discover your true self (and THE TRUE
SELF).
However, if you
want to be a bit of a
random
event, and be (i.e. live, thereby express your true self), then you
have to
give up sameness (i.e. what you are right now).
In short, in order to live (i.e. to be, i.e. to be
real) you have to
die i.e. to what you are.
