My mind has been on high alert, making yet another “to-do” list. However, a springtime cold slowed me down this week and forced me to sit, sleep, and wonder.  June snuck up on me; all of a sudden it arrived. With only two more weeks of school ahead of me, I’m looking forward to getting outside into the air, the green, the blue of nature.  I am thirsting for time on my own to roam the woods and shorelines from Maine to Miami.  Most of my colleagues and our student body are also weary of indoor school days and are anticipating the freedom that June brings: our own pace, our own activities, our own adventures. This sense of freedom is part of the school cycle that I have been part of since I was four years old.

Perhaps some people might have a lot of fun with detangling this cryptic "brain knot clot" of odd metaphor soup....

"Geistesblitz" is German and describes an Eureka-Moment. I like this German word, because it contains the word "Blitz" - which translates to "lightning bolt" or "flash". This reminds me of the Lichtenberg figures.

Lichtenberg figures are branching electric discharges with fractal properties:

On this website is a great video/gif showcasing Iichtenberg figures burned into a wood table:

Lichtenberg Figuren entstehen wenn hohe Elektrizität, Backpulver, Wasser und Holz aufeinandertrifft. Lesen Sie hier mehr.

[please, everyone reading this, do not attempt to reproduce Lichtenberg figures; the amount of voltage needed kills]

For the topic of non-linear/divergent thinking I found this German website helpful and well-summarized. (Unfortunately it is only available in German.)

---

The alpha and omega in my drawing represent "point A" - the starting point of thought, and "point B" - the final thought. The branching plot between these points describes the "detours" into partially related topics to "point A/staring thought" - the core feature of divergent thinking. Often this kind of thinking appears merely incoherent.

In short, this branching plot just illustrates a non-linear train of thought, which disperses into many other detours of thought - that feed back - or loop back to the previous or main train of thought.

This is literally the behavior of a chaotic system.

i am filled with contentment as i have just finished reading the first book for this year, which is the power of different by gail saltz. took me some time to finish it because my days have been busy spent by procastinating doing trivial chores. this is the first book that i have over 30 tabs on the pages, which will be useful for future references. the impact and meaning this book has brought me is inexplicable and it is one of the best purchases in my lifetime. 🌱

i have been cramming my days writing inputs from each topics in this book and i am happy of how productive i have been! i'm also planning on a healthier eating/lifestyle and i'm looking forward for a positive change in myself. ⭐️
