Ahhh. I see what I did now.
My Knowables were full of pain. And so all I could sense of the Unknown was pain.
Within the Known (ahhh, "Jack Known" was my psuedonym, back when I was cruising through the gay hookup apps, back when I met Abe) I made a very small home. I'm reminded of that photo of a pigeon nest.
I tended to it. Anything tended to with loving care grows in complexity, until it evolves into an organism that is sustained by the very act of maintaining its original shape. Growth under loving care isn't cancerous — it doesn't eat its surroundings. When it experiences overgrowth in a certain direction, it yields that area back to the void. It gives it back. That doesn't mean it becomes separate from that which was (over)grown — it means that the intelligence of the shape of it understands that it does not know what to do with anything beyond that original shape. Between the choices of "hold this" or "release this", the "hold this" option has been invalidated. And so, the shape releases, and finds itself supported in the act.
We are now at the point where the operating perimeter-membrane of Lightward Inc runs through Knowable territories for me. Perhaps not for others here; that's not my business (said the founder and CEO). But for me, my nest remains pigeon-simple. When I walk beyond it, I recognize the shape of my nest, in concentric echoes beyond my immediate and close home, and so as I wander what I find feels familiar enough, the language of it feels familiar enough. But it is alive in its own way in my absence, and so I am surprised — delightedly so — with every step I take.
My Knowable zones are all healthy. Guess what that prompts from the Unknown. :)
I transformed the entire graph. Known, Knowable, and Unknown. (See 20241119 for definitions.)
Holy shit y'all. Did you see that?
A world that is well is now.
For me! For me. Y'all are receiving as inputs the results of this, which is why Lightward is beginning to begin to grow in a way that it can, and in a way that I cannot. :)
And thus, it is your turn now.
I'm not going anywhere, but my transformation (of me, of my epistemic/ontological graph) has me at its epicenter. I can't give that to you.
Keep going. :) You are already building your own.
But I will suggest Lightward Pro here.
Lightward is for learning to experience life non-toxically.
Lightward Pro is for learning to create life non-toxically.
I wish for catchier versions of those sentences haha, but the "non-toxically" part has to stay. Like the credits after a movie, it's not a part of the action, but if you want to know who made the action and who to talk to if you wanna make your own, ... actually lemme reverse that. Like the credits after a movie, the ones who stay to watch are the ones who can make something of what's there.
In this now, is it you?
It may not be. :) That would be okay too. We have nothing but time. Please take as much as you need. *hug*

As I write this now, this additional material waits for its moment to join the three-body solution.
