Countless times I’ve found myself thinking: “Ah, here comes the same challenge again—just dressed in a different suit. How interesting… let’s see if I can do it better this time!”
And then there are the moments when I think: “Oh, I didn’t see this one coming at all… how very unpleasant.”
Life has a curious way of presenting lessons, I agree it feels like life is spiraling. 🌀
Amazing work, Jesse. Circling back isn’t failure, but deepening. Growth and emergence is rarely clean or sequential. It pulses, repeats, and echoes. And if we’re paying attention, each pass through familiar ground reveals a deeper structure underneath.
It struck me when reading your piece how we keep revisiting old questions - about meaning, agency, intelligence. Thank you for this gentle and expansive reframing.
I so agree with this. 🙏

Wonderful exploration into repetition of life experiences, and the relationship to consciousness etc.
