Once you have read it, I believe you won't be able to forget this article. http://www.thomhartmann.com/hutchison.shtml
It's an amazing tale of one man's journey. Through what appear to be horrendous trials and tribulations, Michael Hutchison has come to a profound yet simple understanding of the meaning of life. I was fascinated by the information on medicine, science, and the connections to higher understanding that is emerging, such as talked about in the following paragraph:
Scientists studying complexity have found that complex systems such as the heart, the brain, and the body, all have a quality that they call "dimensionality". Degrees of dimensionality run along a spectrum from low to high. High dimensionality systems are characterized by great amounts of flexibility, novelty, unpredictability, variability, adaptability, resiliency, and so on. Low dimensionality systems are characterized by rigidity, stiffness, predictability, regularity-- the opposite of high dimensionality. The important fact to note is that high dimensionality biological systems are extremely healthy, with high vitality, while low dimensionality is a sign of disease, age, and dysfunction. Cardiologists, for example, are finding they can measure the dimensionality of the heart rate, and if the heart shows low dimensionality--rigidity and extreme regularity-- then that is a sign of heart pathology, and there is danger of a heart attack. Similarly, research has proved that healthy humans have a high dimensionality gait, while low dimensionality gait is characteristic of sick or aging people.
