Some habits of mind and heart lead to disintegration. Other habits of mind and heart lead to integration. The differences between them are not always obvious, especially to those involved in the integration and/or disintegration. We respond to habits of mind and heart in terms of the reflexive ways in which we perceive them. We find ourselves engaged in tragic dynamic processes when we perceive integrative processes in ways which lead us to avoid them; and/or perceive disintegrative processes in ways which lead us to become involved in them. If individual members of a community are led by their perceptions to regard disintegrative processes as likely to be profitable to them, then such individuals are likely to be lead into participating in such processes, even though such participation will lead them and their community into disintegrative trends. If individual members of a community are led by their perceptions to regard integrative processes as unlikely to be profitable to them, then such individuals are unlikely to be led into participating in such processes, even though such participation would lead them and their community into integrative trends. It is important for individuals and communities to learn to recognize the consequences of their habits of mind and heart; to see clearly the elements of dis/integrative processes and the ways in which such elements interact. The elements of dis/integrative processes are personal and communal transactions in objective and reflexive relationships. Each such transaction is an elementary part of a web of transactions which lead to either integration or to disintegration. It is helpful to be able to perceive each transaction with regard to what role it plays in the whole web of reflexive transactions, as they either knit or unravel the web of relationships which holds the community together as a whole. Such perceptions are not objective perceptions; they are reflexive perceptions. People who specialize in objective perceptions are unlikely to be able to offer essential reflexive perceptions by which the community may be led into integrative habits of mind and heart. Recognizing what is missing is often just as important as recognizing the significance of that which is present. The lacks of a community and its members often lead to disintegration. It is difficult to recognize lacks. It is harder to recognize which unfamiliar person who belong in a group is absent, than it is to remember the names of the more familiar persons who are present. It is harder to recognize which unfamiliar but essential habits of mind and heart are absent from a community, than to recognize the more familiar disintegrative ones which are present. Yet it can be just as important to perceive the significant consequences of missing habits of mind and heart, as it is to perceive the significant consequences of the present habits of mind and heart. The following absences/lacks are suggestive of disintegration in a community; the absence of: expressions of affection, compliments, eye contact, honest criticism, requests for forgiveness, acceptance of personal differences, tolerance, clear personal convictions, openly reflexive expressions, etc. To people who lack these in their community, it is difficult to recognize that there is a lack. The perception of such lacks is an essential step towards the recovery of personal and communal integrity for those who suffer the lacks. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
