Influence is the capacity of a communicative form to alter the probability distribution of future communication.
Meaning is not hidden inside things. It emerges through the relationships, delays, absences, and consequences that allow anything to matter at all.
Life does not belong to things. Things belong to life. Consciousness, relation, memory, recurrence, and form are not exceptions within reality. They are what reality does.
Whatever else a life contains, kindness is what makes it matter.
Reality is not made of things. Things are what appear when deeper patterns of relation become temporarily stable.
