Upon   what   basis/grounds  can  we  best   maintain   an
Appropriate-Balance between Change and Tradition/Stability
in our lives?   How are we to avoid the dangerous extremes
of Chaos,   and of Being-Stuck-in-Ruts?   Between Crashing
and Stagnation?  What are we to do within the context of a
major  revolution  in chaos?    Within a  dying  community
which has stagnated?

In  extreme  circumstances  what can we  safely  cling-to?
What   CLUSTERS   of  ideals,   values,   goals,    hopes,
expectations are most reliable when we are  caught in such
extreme  circumstances?  How are we to decide what to Let-
Go-Of?  What is "enough" to guide and energize us?

How are we to wisely/prudently consider:

 1.  Patterns of Alienative-Behaviors?
 2.  Creative-Young-People?
 3.  Ancient-Scripts?
 4.  Revered-Traditions?
 5.  Classic-Literature?
 6.  Classic-Music?
 7.  Classic-Art?
 8.  Scientific-Revolutions?
 9.  Cultural-Revolutions?
10.  Political-Revolutions?

No Concern-For-Balance and for Distributive-Justice can be
complete in the ABSENCE-of-concern-for-WHAT-IS-ABSENT!

If we focus only  upon what is DOMINANT and  upon contests
between the DOMINANT-Considerations --- we inevitably fail
to  focus  any attention upon  the  Essential-Clusters-of-
Virtues which have been Let-Go-Of and have been Shut-Out.

How then are we to Recognize What-is-Now-Absent;  and upon
which  there is Not-Enough-Attention being  focused?    We
should ask the people  who  have  been shut-out,  ignored,
impoverished and  otherwise Rendered-Impotent!   We should
take    note    of   how   Concentrations-of-Wealth    and
Concentrations-of-Powers  have Corrupted  those  who  have
benefited from those Concentrations of Power-and-Wealth!

We should restore  traditions  of  Distributive-Justice to
facilitate   the  discovery  of the Essential-Clusters-of-
Virtues which have been Shut-Out!

     Be-Together in the Many-Gracious Ways of Shalom.

                    (On Being Yourself Whole and Healthy)
