A paradox by any other name.....

Because in almost every buzz and in almost all the comments to the buzzes I have been reading I have been able to find a paradox, I have been inspired to remind you all of the Paradox Hive.*

"It is time to acknowledge that paradox is a thread that is woven through the fabric of life. You may be able to tug on it, but pull too hard and the fabric begins to unravel."
Sara Jacobovici

Paradox

· something (such as a situation) that is made up of two opposite things and that seems impossible but is actually true or possible

· someone who does two things that seem to be opposite to each other or who has qualities that are opposite

· a statement that seems to say two opposite things but that may be true

(Source: Merriam-Webster's Learner's Dictionary)

Within the definition of paradox there is an embedded paradox: The impossible can be possible.  Beside…who says opposites cannot be true?

My offer of the paradox of the day.

“While specific regions of the brain are responsible for specific things, we are aware that the brain functions as a whole system. The better the regions integrate with each other, the better they all work independently.”

The paradox I see in this quote: Independent functions work better when integrated.

*I invite you to post on the hive any of your articles on the topic of paradox or anything you have read or come across that inspired a paradox.
