The Choice is Ours


Conceptual impressions surrounding this post are yet to be substantiated, corroborated, confirmed or woven into a larger argument or network.

Design permeates our being. Design affords us the opportunity to understand the concept of being-ness as state of intimacy made apparent within the parameters of a particular kind of self-awareness. Design invites us to bear witness to our own consciousness by presenting it before our awareness as a qualified universal expression gently woven within in a symbolic and holographic matrix of our own making. To be conscious is to bring confirmation to a certain primordial presence both as a creator and an observer. The ego qualifies the concept of consciousness and impulsively directs our attention (focus) towards experiences that are based/positioned within the constraints of three-dimensional space and time.

Herein lies the beauty surrounding the paradox created between consciousness and design. Without design there wouldn't be an awareness of consciousness and without consciousness there wouldn't be an awareness of design. Without design there wouldn't be any idea surrounding the concept of "being-ness", nor would there appear the symbolic revelations required to convey the concept of consciousness to itself.

It is in our construct, i.e. design, to naturally project a conscious awareness, i.e. light, that appears to originate and be focused from within. This light is the source that coordinates and affords us the relative substance required to bring expression to our being. We’ve come to understand this visceral force as the desire to expand beyond the constraints of subjectivity. This desire harbors the intention to expose and make known to ourselves our own identity. In reference to the species the ego qualifies consciousness in a categorical manner. The ego brings expression to the desires and intentions of a certain quality, i.e. frequency, of light made apparent within the parametric constraints of a three-dimensional universe.

"When subjectivity is defined as the ability of a system to register internal and external forces affecting its existence in the form of sensations, however primitive they may be, we must conclude that subjectivity is universal in nature's realms of organized complexity. But this conclusion does not hold for reflective consciousness, the ability of a system to be aware of its subjectivity."
Ervin Laszlo, The Systems View of the World, pg. 69

We are naturally driven to experience and expand our consciousness through an overwhelming desire and intention to know ourselves. Where did we come from? Who are we? Who am I? Why are we here? What are we doing here or supposed to be doing if anything? etc. We endlessly project ourselves into a holographic and virtual world primarily for the purpose of discovering and/or unmasking who we really are. It is a question that continues to haunt human consciousness today. In other words we are intent on discovering/learning through the design experience, what is the true meaning and purpose in support of life.

When all is said and done whatever we allow to affect us remains a matter of choice. Choice allows us to accept or reject whatever we perceive and/or describe as being real. What is real is what you allow yourself to buy into, i.e. whatever you believe. Is what you believe what someone else has told you, or is it what you know by means of your own experience? 

Consciousness is made manifest by means of a number of belief systems mixed, matched, shared and/or experienced by virtue of a long and eventful process called evolution. The power of choice however, can also prove detrimental if we choose and interpret all our experiences solely at one single level (qualification) of the ego rather than the multidimensional (quantum) perspective of a conscious and empathic observer.

“Your ego … is merely a bio-mechanism of focus for choice …”

Experiences are naturally interwoven by design. Together they develop within a universal field of conceptual time/space. Together they create a greater matrix (field) in constant flux. These events and experiences are found upon the interpretation of our own thoughts and emotions made apparent through the design concepts of meaning and purpose. These observations, evaluations and impressions remain inconsequential until we reflect and/or respond to them by means of expression (creativity). Consequently, not until we accept these experiences to be vital to our growth both as an individual and as a species could we ever achieve the ability to control, expand and learn from them. The path towards inner discovery is a life long journey based upon the importance of living in the moment ... for it is only in the moment that both the past and the future can be afforded the opportunity to reveal themselves.


The unique relationship we have with the unknown similarly describes the connection we have with our own reality. Typically our ego tends to over power us merely because we are quick to identify with form and reject the unseen qualities that permeate our reality*. Hopefully, as we become more attentive to the formless expressions of life’s experiences we can become more conscious of the design archetype that gives true meaning and purpose to our life.
* Stop and consider just how influential the intangible realms of the known and the unknown are to the hologram we label reality.
