ordinary and novelty

There are two kinds of equilibriums in an environment. To an extent both work to accomplish a higher purpose, however it is interesting to note that they work in opposition to each other and they do not work in tandem. If one is working the other is dormant and vice versa.

Under settled conditions there is no encouragement for novelties; they do not develop, they are suppressed; what is best adapted is already there. Under novel conditions it is the ordinary that suffers, and the novelty that may have a better chance to survive and establish itself.

Since we people are to an extent a reflection of our environment, we can surmise that our minds reflect this state of equilibrium. We express this equilibrium at work and at home, with parents and friends, in business operations and creativity.

Some of our relations are at a status quo while others are being encouraged to evolve to a new plane.
