Perhaps life is about manipulation? Just about everywhere you look, you see some aspect of manipulation. Simply put, manipulation is to control, but there's something more natural about it. It's more about using available means in a way for personal gain, control is simply a process of manipulation. The human race has especially advanced in this ability, what we consistently call "creation" is really manipulation. During the earliest ages of man, we didn't "create" tools, we manipulated available resources into such a way to perform in a specific way. Or is it that "creation" is a process of manipulation as well? It's still just as true today, we manipulate metals, all other natural resources, and even the behavior of electrons to "make" things like TVs and Computers. We manipulate metals and such to create a process with which to manipulate the behavior of gasoline, a product of the manipulation of crude oil, to manipulate the movement of metals into the movement of the automobile.
Manipulation is woven into our very beings, we manipulate chemicals in our body to manipulate our muscles into tightening to manipulate our limbs. We manipulate food and digest it for nutrients, but here we have another process of manipulation, "destruction". Perhaps there are actually three types of manipulation? Creation, control, destruction, or is it still just as easily three parts of one thing? Could there be more? could there be a fourth? Like the possibility of a fourth dimension. Perhaps it is beyond us, because we are victim to it?
