By the pursuit of ease and comfort
It’s only through suffering that we escape this trap
Because its through suffering that our hearts are made tender
And it’s only through a tender heart that we can truly see

On Becoming Generative
Generative thinking is fueled by generosity because it so often must work against a mindset that has survival and utility in the foreground.

Life and beauty are gratuitous in the best senses of that word.
