The Universe is like a woman who can never decide what to wear. The space remains or adds: but the appearance always flicker into something else.

I like it, and it's not a joke, because I was lacking a way of describing what I saw in my own mind as I was pondering and this was the only working metaphor I could conjure.

The point I was looking for was in an investigation about ways in which to connect my ideas of a science of needs to everyday ways of thinking and conversing, and what mediums I needed to go through, which also ended up being a revisit to some fundamentals.

It came to an idea that fixed locations in space each "spawn" a "suit/dress/decor" that constantly change while the space remains the same (which is not true in so far as space doesn't disappear). Like virtual space where the coordinates remain the same but continuously spawn new looks (graphics).

The argument I wanted to make out of this was that if something continuously changes, then it's not at peace. As such, the universe is not at peace when it changes, and the continuous changing tells us how we can bring peace to the universe by finalizing it through directing the change to a balanced lasting state: the end-time, a last image of the world that ceases altogether to change, and finally, the universe is at peace.
