# During and Between Transitions By:: [[Brian Heath]] 2024-07-02 Tradition is as powerful as it is weak. It binds us together against the universe's chaos but also prevents growth. To be hung up on tradition is to focus on something that never was. To be hung up on change is to focus on something that will never be. To exist in both states is to find a way to live a meaningful life. It's constantly flickering between things that never were and will never be. Between and during is what is in that moment. It's a place where real progress can be made. #### Related Items [[Metamodernism]] [[Tradition]] [[Liberal]] [[Conservative]] [[Time]] [[Life]] [[Complex Systems]]
