Passion, inspiration, engagement, and the creative, integrative, synergetic spirit is the vision of this philosophical-psychological forum in a network of evolving blog sites, each with its own subject domain and related essays. In this blog site, I re-work The Freudian Paradigm, keeping some of Freud's key ideas, deconstructing, modifying, re-constructing others, in a creative, integrative process that blends philosophical, psychoanalytic and neo-psychoanalytic ideas.. -- DGB, April 30th, 2013

Our 'Time-Metre' -- Time....Slip-Sliding Away....
Time....slip-sliding away...
And aging....
Which we can choose to either
Rage against...or accept more serenely....
Indeed, our own self-destructive reactions and/or obsessive-compulsive-addictions may ....
Be speeding up the process...
Or we can step inside our own 'self-psychotherapy room'...
Or someone else's psychotherapy room...
Do our best to integrate our conflicting forces...
And/or turn our destructive impulses into more creative ones...
Find some sense of peace and harmony within ourselves....
Work faster and harder if we need to....
Still find time for play, relaxation, friends, family, community...
Stay away from all self-destructive play pens....
And walls without padding...
Breathe....
And move on...
It is perhaps a cliche....
But I will say what has been said many times before me...
Live your life with love and caring, with spiritual-romantic-passion....and finish your destiny...
The way you want to finish it...
Entropy and apathy are your enemies...
They rob you...
Of the passion and energy that...
You can, and should,
Be investing in your....
Time-metre...
Time....faster and faster...
Slip-sliding away.
