Fibonacci believed that patterns and sequences existed in all forms of nature. Basically, that everything was predetermined by the laws of a Golden Ratio or Divine Proportion. Well, His theory is used to a certain degree in modified form in some financial and trading analysis. But overall, his original concept and belief in his discovery is largely dismissed and seen as more of an abstract idea for a hypothetical problem regarding rabbits in 1202 AD Pisa, Italy. Regardless, In a world where religion is more doubted than ever - and cruelty abounds - I don't see a negative in accepting Fibonacci's Sequence and his Golden Ratio as fact.

"The ratio is always the same: 1 to 1.618 over and over and over again. The patterns are hidden in plain sight. You just have to know where to look. Things most people see as chaos, actually follow subtle laws of behaviour.  Galaxies, plants, seashells – the patterns never lie, but only some of us can see how the pieces fit together. Seven billion, eighty-million, three hundred sixty-thousand of us live on this tiny planet. And few of us will be the ones that are able to really see these connections, what they mean, and what truly matters.There’s an ancient Chinese myth about the red thread of fate. It says that the gods have tied a red thread around every one of our ankles and attached it to all the people whose lives we are destined to touch. This thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break. It’s said to have all been predetermined by mathematical probability.The ones whose lives need to connect. Today, we’ll send over 300 billion emails, 19 billion text messages, yet we’ll still feel alone. The average person will say 2,250 words to 7.4 other individuals. Will these words be used to hurt or to heal?"

When I was young, I drew little hearts on everything. As I grew older, I discovered a very large part of my reality lacked any real, & compassionate human hearts. Maybe, we secretly draw these hearts in our youth, to make up the difference for the ones we never really discover in our lifetime. The ones we want to see in others, but cannot, or do not. Ancient Egyptians believed, the only way to enter the after life was to answer a series of questions correctly& honestly. As well as to have a heart no heavier than that of a feather. A metaphor? Quite possibly. But intriguing all the same. Every culture has its traditions & rites of life & death. I strongly believe in cremation. I read somewhere, that the temperature at which a body will burn, is not enough. Because the Human Heart, with all of it’s muscle, will remain. Therefore, the temperature of cremation is determined by the Human Heart. Finally, Yet again, After all of the rituals of death are over, I read something I never would have even thought about before.…… Although the Kingdom Of Joy is guarded from all evil by red doors, keeping bad spirits OUT… It also traps all of the good spirits IN… Therefore: A Red Door That Stays Forever Closed, Is Worse Than Having No Door At All…
