ON THE THINGS WE BUILD WITHOUT KNOWING, THE MEANING WE FIND, AND THE MEANING WE LEAVE BEHIND FOR OTHERS
On tending the garden, hurling through the sky, and experiencing the now
ON THE VALUE OF BEING JUDGED, THE LURE OF SAMENESS, AND FITTING THE PIECES TOGETHER
On notes in the forest, how we occupy space, and that which attracts and repels
ON DREAMS THAT HAUNT, WORRY THAT STRANGLES, AND OBJECTIVITY THAT IS INHUMAN
On childlike innocence, being an observer, and understanding the messiness of the world
ON EXTREME LISTENING, HEARING OURSELVES THINK, AND LETTING OURSELVES FEEL
On the capitalism box, trying to connect all the dots, and traveling from point A to point B
ON WORKING IN SOLITUDE, SLEEPING THROUGH ART, AND THE FAILURE OF WORDS
On being generous with ourselves, appreciating our feet, and making the leap between “what” and “how”
ON PRACTICING OUR PUBLIC VOICES, PONDERING WHY WE READ, AND MOVING INTO HIGH GEAR
On moral obligations, how the gears fit together, and feeling the loss of all that we cannot read
On the question of what work matters, whether work that matters even matters, and pining for room to savor and reflect during the holidays
On the “progress principle,” how we measure meaning, and the second hand in motion
On navigating systems that feel inhuman and the necessary role inhuman systems play in our world
On data lost and found, new-old knowledge, and how to sleep
On daily practices, steady progress, and learning from each other
On the way death comes, the clunky tools we use to see and to live by, and the messiness of love.
On building our own caskets and finding ways to accurately view our own places in this world
On being there, rethinking our pace, and contemplating how the puzzle fits together
