Reality

It’s sometimes hard to understand why we do the things that we do. How we come to feel the way that we do. Why one decision is made over another. These are all natural curiosities and questions in life. They can be applied one way or another to everything that happens. Generalities. In an attempt to apply select meaning to this assertion, I will focus on one venue in particular.

One of the most confusing platforms of misunderstanding is in the form of attraction. Attraction and any extension of it, whether it be relationships, dating, lust or the simple crush. Attraction can exist with or with out the conscious knowledge of two people. Even if the other person is unaware of the attraction, they still are a variable in the equation nonetheless. I do have a simple mathematical explanation as to why the notion of attraction is so much more complicated than the other avenues of life. Take for example, your personal struggles when it comes to your own handling of stressful events or what happens when you’re faced with decisions you don’t want to make? What about regrets? How come I feel this way? Everyone has asked themselves questions like this at one time or another, if you haven’t, I would say you’re not human, and the expression “ignorance is bliss” truly applies to you, in the strongest and most biological context possible. Your life is simple and empty, but you don’t care to know. Remember back on that episode of “internal confusion.” That episode you experienced, alone, all by yourself in a circumstance exclusive to you and only you. Now add another person. Intensify the equation by the inclusion of one. I warned you it was a simple explanation; it’s the difference between one and two.

It’s a matter of understanding two different sets of motivations. Two different sets emotions, two sets of perception and two sets of interpretation. Include all others I miss. Every factor multiplied exponentially by the power of two. With all that room for error, it’s no wonder that the stages of attraction generate so much confusion, heartache and misunderstanding.

It’s important to note the difference between perception and interpretation. The difference between perception and interpretation is, perception is what you believe to be true, while interpretation is what you deem the variable would believe to be true. It’s slight, but significant.

Inspirations for attraction are as unpredictable as anything else metaphysical. Attraction can be the result from year’s of acquaintance, triggered one day by a delicate smile. It could happen instantly, from the first time you see their eyes, and you witness more than a retina. It can grow from what you discover about someone or by what you learn from them personally. However, that knowledge may be disseminated. The possibilities are infinite. There simply is no explanation for the causes of attraction. The levels of certain chemicals in the brain can be measured, but that is only a symptom, not the cause. Sometimes the only rational explanation could be found in the alignment of the moon and the stars, but to my knowledge, the bounds of science, also, haven’t been able to predict, determine, or explain attraction. I’m sure Stephen Hawking is trying his damdest.

So what is my point? Am I here to self-indulge my own explanation concerning the principles of attraction? Would that even mean anything to anyone, or would they want their time back? How many questions can I possibly ask in a row?

My point is to bring the elements of unexplainable cause back to reality. To find away to bring functionality to a disabling equation. The only way, for me, to find the answers is to break everything down. The same process used in any sort of progressive mathematics. We begin by factoring the questions asked earlier. Ultimately, we want to set the equation equal to zero. That is the starting point for everyone.

What is my motivation? - What is her's? = Do we want the same thing?

What am I feeling? X What does she feel? = Emotional Anarchy.

(What do I believe – What do I think she believes?) / (What does she believe – What she thinks I believe) = Where does everybody come from?

Simplify the equation: Sum the totals and you’ll find it = The Chaos Theory

Start over and do it again.

Continue to Simplify and cancel out. This time rearrange everything. The objective is to bring the equation back down to zero. That is how to achieve function.

Otherwise, your solution is the Chaos Theory.

*Assemble this equation however you see fit, this is my perception only, yours may (and should) be different.*

Like I said, the purpose of my dissertation is to find a way to bring the elements of unexplainable cause back to reality. I don’t like confusions or distractions. Relationships, dating and crushes precede those results.

I like simplicity, reason and function.

Simplify the factors and cancel out the variables. The objective is to set the equation equal to zero. That is how to achieve function.

If you can’t solve it, can’t bring it all back down to zero, then it means that the combined attraction equals more than the sum of its parts. Then you may have something. A special circumstance for the two of you, and you are ready to move on to the equations of intimacy and love. I have never been there, so I can’t help. Good luck.
