Our Weird Universe

Is the
Universe Weird?
The universe
is certainly beautifully weird and I am in awe of it! Discussing the particles
that make-up the universe is fascinating. Weird is a relative adjective. What
is weird to one may be normal to another. Counterculture of the sixties. Beatniks
of the fifties. People who are not familiar with Chinese medicine or have not
had acupuncture may find that very weird. Anything that is unfamiliar to a
person is often considered weird. And understandably so; if a person has no
context of an experience their understanding is limited. Also, whether one is
accepting of new ideas and philosophies or rigid and closed minded has a lot to
do with of personal perception. And perception becomes reality for that
individual. For the adventurous thinker, weirdness will always be in flux,
transforming over time into new understandings and familiarity. While those who
are closed minded the thing that is weird to them stays the same. If they choose
not accept this or that, their consciousness stay limited. I believe this is
the whole basis for racism, sexism, classism and all the “negative-isms” in the
world.
