Wish You Were Here wrote:So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange
a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year,
running over the same old ground. What have we found?
The same old fears,
wish you were here.

"2 events appearing simultaneous to one may not appear simultaneous to another moving rapidly"
assuming sufficient intelligence to ponder simultinaety, and having moved from lying to crawling and so forth,
how could the second be impervious to accounting for motion acheived?
thought boxes and ostrich heads... we've got issues

The development of human personality begins as process of organization
of the original instinctive tendencies into instincts,
which in contact with objects
calling out some response result finally in the instinctive action.
This process marks the first stage in the growth of character.
The instincts are not uniformly developed action systems
nor do they begin to function simultaneously.
Another difference between them is that they vary widely in their urge to action,
or in other words,
they require stimuli of differing intensities.
The instincts of feeding, flight, locomotion, and curiosity may be considered as appearing relatively early,
while the instincts of gregariousness and sex among others may be looked upon as comparatively very powerful in function.
The strength of some instincts,
notably those of sex and gregariousness,
have influenced various writers to make the entire complexity of human nature center around one or few instincts.
When the individual begins to use this organized equipment
he prepares himself to acquire various habits of response
and many incipient responses.
The entire equipment of native and acquired action systems
marks the capacity of an individual to adapt himself to the various circumstances
which the surroundings and their changes call out.
The further development of personality is a process of constant acquisition
of new forms of adaptations
as the result of the modification of the original instinctive actions.
This development parallels a concomitant development
of complexity
in
the
environment.
