Friends' personal ideals and values, both consciously formulated and implicit unconscious ones. Intimate lovers' personal and ideals and values, both consciously formulated and implicit unconscious ones. Individual families' ideals and values, both overtly articulated and implicit un-articulated ones Extended families' ideals and values, both overtly articulated and implicit un-articulated ones. Communal ideals and values, including overtly articulated formal ones, informal ones articulated in public communications, and implicit un-articulated ones. Conceptions of the normal, proper and to be expected nature of intimate human relationships; in regards to process, content, and context. Conscious and unconscious theories of the nature of reality, its elements, how its elements inter- relate, and cause effects. How knowledge, science, technology, manufacturing, pollution, resource exhaustion, education, religions, political systems, professional organizations, and world-wide institutions evolve and interact. How individuals and other elements of the total community adjust and re-adjust in the presence of dissonance between the ideals and values which generate intentions and expectations on the one hand; and the realities of daily life which may or may not be the fulfillment of such intentions and expectations. How individuals and other elements of the total community explain/understand dissonances between/among intentions, expectations, and reality; e.g., theories regarding tragedies, good, evil, salvation, damnation, etc. The roles of prayer, meditation, relaxation, brain-storming, and sleep within the individual and corporate lives of the communities. How individuals and collective elements of the community adjust in the presence of conflicts between/among ideals and values; and in the presence of conflicts between/among personal incarnations of ideals and values which are in conflict. How perceptions of and theories regarding the actual and proper evolution of the above reflexive realities evolve within personal relationships among people who are seeking to be objective about reflexive realities. What are the evolving conceptions of individuals, lovers, families, extended families, and larger units of each community as regards their own and each other's place in promoting/undermining both personal and communal integrity. Which of the above realities are compulsively focused upon in unbalanced ways; which are invisible and/or ignored/neglected by reason of compulsion, collusions, addictions, and or simple human limitations of time, energy, interest, and ability; and which are recognized, described and discussed openly and honestly in integrative ways. How each of the above realities dynamically inter- relate; making adjustments bit by bit as the days and nights pass. How clearly individuals and communities are aware of and promote integrative processes of honest communication and interaction among the above realities. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
