Awoke thinking about The Humanities, i.e. the academic category, and its reputed present irrelevance. Words arising: humanities, humanity, humanite, human. Words also always arising in my mind: KnICH: Knowledge, Imagination, Compassion, Humour. Surreason. Relevant? Essential humanities? Surely.

The process of "solution" to the unsolved riddles of social justice does not seek immediate perfection, but rather incremental improvement. We do not have to get anything right the first time, let alone everything. Our institutions are flexible within reason. Reason is good. Sur-reason is better.

We tinker constantly with the Model. It is a matrix in usual form with rows and columns. The rows are a set of 31 "tetrads" which are "squads" or "swarms" of four words each encompassing the "functions" who coalesce to make the Model work. The ethos is sane, orderly, continuous, humanite. Fourfold.

Poetical Canadiana in KnICH Magazine, Monday, May 12th: Our anthologized poet this week is Samuel Payne Ford (1840-1923), who turns out to have been more remarkable as an encyclopedic country doctor than a poet, but was a poet too on a modest scale, which makes him doubly remarkable.

Stephen Leacock tells us that Social Justice is an Unsolved Riddle. More so is Coinonic Justice. Charles Simeon tells us that truth lives at both extremes, not at either one or half-way between. Isaiah Berlin tells us that pursuit of freedom brings with it a measure of inefficiency and muddle.

May 3rd. Mind is the capacity, the field, we maintain to process experience. There is no escaping its use. Experience arrives in bombardments of Impressions, received by the Mind, which then Cultivates them into whatever we make of them, including Action or Deeds. To use Mind is to be Human.

May 2nd. Today's Muddlement (MUDL Element) is pure William Blake, tinged Canadian. Single vision is a form of sleep. Twofold Vision is useful. Threefold Vision is beyond the rational possibilities of the moment (Borduas). Fourfold Vision transcends, a gift open to cultivation.

May 1st: A new series begins, to be re-cycled monthly. The MUDL Model is the essence of what I stand for, what I believe our country and all of us, individually and collectively, stand for, what we truly mean by love of country. It's not supposed to be easy.
