Perception, Logic?

Are perception and logic forces, like energy, or something different?

Energy/Matter + Something = Life (perceives and interacts intelligently with environment)?

Energy/Matter/Life = Universe?

Circled back to the beginning of my thoughts, again. 

Energy Fused In Blackhole Produces?

When matter is fused in a sun, some is transformed into another state (proton-proton chain, hydrogen to helium, etc.) and some is transformed into energy.

Light (energy) is unable to escape from a blackhole. So, energy is fused in a blackhole and is likely to be transformed into a another state and some into another type of energy or some 'thing'.

Some now say that it is dark energy, or expansion of space itself. I, and probably many others, also thought so a couple of decades ago due to the lack of other possible explanations.
