Uncertainty Paradox

Uncertainty Paradox -- a nice poem from the mysticsaint / Inspirations and Creative Thoughts / Sadiq Alam blog.

Relatedly, one of my favorite ideas of late is the "I.O.U." of existence.  Everything--a theory, a map, a self--is either Incomplete Or Uncertain.  The more data you accept, the less coherent you are.  The more internally consistent you are, the more data you have to ignore.  I got this from Ken Wilber's Sex, Ecology, Spirituality. 

To a skeptic who is certain, mysterious lights in the sky must have some explanation other than alien entities or spiritual visions.  To a skeptic who is uncertain, mysterious lights in the sky are mysterious lights in the sky, and may have many, any, or no explanation.  It's fun.
