Elaboration 36

The basic workings of all life, of all ideation (which is synonymous) are by the grace of an 'ego' that has a 'wellbeing'. By this, even the very cells of an individual remain alive, therefore capable to function in the organ, hence the body. Apart from a single-cell individual, as said before, the cells in a body have three tasks. The very first one is: 'staying alive' (is ego, is well-being, is feeding, is 'I, to have'), the second is doing the specific job it is designed for, the third is, keeping an eye on its neighbouring cells, and report deficiencies thereof. The principle of 'I, to have', only, is fundamental for everything that has to do with life. We have to look at Spencer to explain how the seemingly inconsistence in e.g. unselfish, altruistic, (looking) acts like e.g. a pilot who does not abandon his machine because it would mean that it crashes in a populous area, thereby losing his own life, is in reality consistent with the 'I, to have' principle (see also Tietjens, etc.). There cannot be a doubt whatsoever that 'I, to have' is definition of-, and synonymous with-: alive, mind, meaning, idea. It also explains why 'love' does not exist in the romantic form of our novels, newspapers, radio programs and other (mis-) educations. The superstition of an 'I, to give', because 'I love you', is easily unmasked as a pure 'I, to have', by asking a simple question.
