Since no list can ever define all possible examples of a concept on all
possible levels (infinite universe and all), I agree that sun, wind, rain,
fire, etc are merely examples; also that the social dimension does in fact
include sectors, or 'directions' from which energy customarily flows,
including money, land access, even information.

In conceptualizing, it seems best to define concepts as flexibly as
possible, in order to create as much freedom as possible. It would be
unecessarily limiting to restrict any term to a single dimension -- better
to explore all the applications of an idea than to tie it to firmly to a
single level of action... 'beginner's mind', and 'In chaos lies great
opportunity for imposing creative order'... might as well start with ample
amounts of chaos for plenty of elbow room!
