In your time…..

I got this idea from Bill Gray. Now, do not blame Dr. Gray for it, but he was the one who first got me thinking about this. I was watching a talk he gave, and he explained how all inputs go into such a chaotic pattern that you can’t tell what is dominant and what to believe. So I came up with this idea: the Sun, the oceans, stochastic events, and the system’s very design far outweigh what man can do to it. It involves humbling oneself enough to understand that even if we did things to end life on Earth ( I am talking about things like blowing ourselves up), the system would always overcome and adjust to the state it was meant to be in, and then continue on its natural cycle to wherever it was supposed to go. And there would be no more arguing over saving the planet, since the people arguing would not be here ( nor would anyone else). The planet would, though, and would adjust based on the parameters it has always adjusted to.

Suppose there are an unknown number of cycles, ranging from multi-seasonal to multi-century, at work here. And suppose that, for a time, there is a crucial intersection of those cycles—or at least that they come close enough to each other—to tip the balance of the climate one way or the other for a time. How could you tell, since those cycles may be like a tidal wave, masked in the ocean until they actually show up approaching land—in this case, the intersection of another large cycle, which may have other smaller cycles also playing a role? Everything (or enough of it) comes together to produce a result, which then will naturally be forced to reverse, but in its own time.

It would explain the variances we have seen in climate through the known geological timescale

I will use this; it was my dad’s favorite.

This shows variability that would indicate—as we see with the monster El Niños—an occurrence due to a cumulative buildup and then a response. We are asked to believe that we are now the cause of what has happened every other time without our input. We cannot know for certain that it is not, but history shows us it should be questioned.

But until we can explain why this happened before in a precise manner, there is plenty of room for conjecture. They have man-made emissions; I have cyclical intersections (such as the sun, the oceans, stochastic events, and the design of the system, which, due to the way it was created, can never find a balance that it can hit and hold, but must instead move toward greater chaos to a point, then return).

You are in a great forest here, and all you can truly see are the trees. Saying that one tree alone, while excluding all the others that make up the forest, is nonsense. But all the trees together do make it up. And that’s the secret: they are all together. And so cycles that are known and unknown may be coming together in such a way that they are producing what we see now. When you only focus on what you believe, you are incapable of seeing anything different.

Which, sadly, is where we are today in many things, no matter what the intention may be

I will close with this: a link to Bob Seger’s ” In Your Time”. I used to sing it to my son when he was little, and  is widely described as a song he wrote for his son, Christopher Cole Seger. It offers fatherly advice about life’s challenges and reassurance that things will work out

I suspect he wrote it with inspiration from the weather  92-93 or 93-94. The second verse describes what happened in the  March 1993 “Superstorm” .

Towering waves will crash across your southern capes
Massive storms will reach your eastern shores

But notice how he comes out of it
Fields of green will tumble through your summer days
By design, in your time.

The chaos of the storm ends with a peaceful resolution   The key is keeping the clear open mind and heart ( as he advises in the song)

And he ends with this:

And after all, the dead ends and the lessons learned
After all the stars have turned to stone
There’ll be peace across the great unbroken void
All benign in your time

You’ll be fine, in your time.

A wonderful song that backs this up:

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. The glory of God conceals a matter, to search the matter out, glory of kings

So there is a reason to search for the cause of what we see.

But in the end

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.

And that may be the true answer.
