binaray nature of the human psyche

If you divide a single subject in two you are half way toward understanding it. Duality can take us far afield, but binary being the number system used by computers, is a mirror image of our mind. This is how we perceive reality two by two. So I stretch a subject across a continuum and establish extreme points at either end. A center freezes things in amber. It does not go anywhere, it does not lead anywhere. So I step back and observe the subject in motion. The dynamic view is a glimpsing panoramic view going in and out our subconscious memories which the static view can, unintentionally or not, be led to set up an entirely different, misleading one. It is not much good for me to think of something while at the same time neglect how I think. It is first far more important how I think than even what I think, since one act leads to the other. Without the first the second is still born.
