The physics of political ideology

The universe seeks balance

Always

Balance is in the ebb and flow of life, as

Life is movement

Always

The dynamic balance of a seesaw in a playground,

heavy while down and weightless while up, breeze running through the hair.

The pendulum swinging side to side, when pulled in one direction always reaches it’s polar opposite.

The Law of Duality is inescapable in this our current state of being. Two sides of the coin. Yin and Yang; polarity of Life.

And were the sun and the moon to begin a dispute on which should rule, and call on us to join one and shun the other? If one were to overthrow the other? Our corn and our beans would cease to grow. Their dance together through the heavens harmonizes life, indeed creating the most beauty when sharing the sky at dusk and dawn.

The spectrum of political ideology runs from the extremes of Idealism without Practical use to Pragmatism without Ideals. And when the pendulum swings, does it ever swing!

We all had that one swing set in our childhood that you could leverage the swing so high that the chain slackened and you lost control, falling back toward the ground. Yea, you tempered your swinging after that, right?

Maybe a little tempering is in order?

Universal balance, it’s just physics.
