To do any specific thing is to say no to doing other possible things, and thereby to admit to finitude. In an attempt to deny finitude we may pretend not to say no to many possibilities, pretending that we are going to fulfill them later; a later for which we do not have time. It is not simple to say no with integrity. We can not have integrity unless we say no to some possibilities with integrity. We do not have integrity if if we pretend we can say yes to all possibilities. The problem of dealing with finitude reaches ultimate proportions when we choose our ultimate ideals and values. It is possible to choose ultimate ideals and values in such a way that it is essentially impossible to fulfill such chosen ultimate ideals and values; leading ultimately to ultimate frustration, anger and violence. To achieve salvation through technology is ultimately impossible, yet to many that is their ultimate ideal. To achieve eternal life at the expense of others is ultimately impossible, yet many seek to achieve that ideal as their ultimate fulfillment. To achieve security through independence is impossible, yet it is the natural desire of paranoids who can not trust anybody and so they view such an ideal as the ultimate ideal. Some people seek to achieve social perfection by forbidding disintegrative experiences; thereby making it taboo to discuss disintegrative experiences and so making it impossible to deal with disintegrative experiences in an integrative way. Blocking communication is essentially a disintegrative means and and can not be used as a means to personal or communal integration. If people are not familiar with disintegrative experiences through existential personal reports, they are unlikely to avoid disintegrative behaviors. To block dialogue about disintegrative experiences is to invite further disintegrative experiences; even in the face of prohibitions intended to prevent disintegrative experiences. It is impossible for finite creatures to articulate perfect rules to guide other finite creatures to perfection and the absence of any disintegrative experiences. To pretend otherwise ultimately leads to disintegration (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
