Holy smokers! Been feeling lately that all facets of life seem to be coalescing into some not-understood point, singularity. And while pondering the conditions of my experience of reality, I realized this condition appears to be the system instability of a Prigogine Bifurcation.

To paraphrase what I think that means: If a system becomes increasing unstable, it reaches a point where it splits in a bifurcation (like the massive tectonic plate shifts causing sudden landmass readjustments via earthquakes), and splits into new configurations of the old system. The second part of the dynamic is that there is no way to know specifically what the new configurations will  take with pronounced  emphasis of unintended consequences.

Drat! Now I have dig out that book "Order Out of Chaos" by Ilya Prigogine and read parts again just to be sure of the actual specifics and what that has to do with the reality in which I find myself.
