cause and effect as the truth for themselves, then it follows that they<br />

must also view the understanding of how life really works as a matter of<br />

the great consequence. That individual’s most important ongoing<br />

challenge is then, to think, speak and act accordingly, even as life<br />

presents the constant pressures to do otherwise. Chip, who you met<br />

subject.<br />

Chip is an example of people who purposefully change the cause side of<br />

their equation when they decide they are not pleased with the effect they<br />

tulip may never grow or may be strangled by weeds. These are both<br />

no matter how educated or sophisticated, to see the quality of their own<br />

life as the direct effect of their own input or cause, as clearly as if they<br />

were planting seeds and tending the garden.<br />

Returning to the tulip, when cared for properly, the result was positive.<br />

When not cared for properly, it was negative. The only difference was<br />

how the law was used. It really made no difference to the law what the<br />

gardener did – the law did not render judgment and call the gardener<br />

either good or bad – the law just reacted to the input, or cause by
