I don’t believe we have even begun to come to terms with our ‘sense of wonder’.
We still have a lot to learn, particularly from those parts of the sense housed in the rhinencephalon
– the old ‘smell brain’.
Mysteries abound there, and reveal themselves only when we have the courage and the imagination to ask the proper questions. - Lyall Watson
I find the cavils
of self-appointed committees
for the suppression of curiosity
very tedious

I know a huge number of disparate facts.
My gift is my quiet ability to weave them together, synthesize them, create a tale, tidy them up so as to be presentable.
Luca Turin:
"Metaphor is the
currency of knowledge.
... one needs
better metaphors."
For interdisciplinarians, metaphors as a tool create language bridges, make cultural and sensory synapses, make knowledge more accessible to others, cross-translate languages of the senses.

The opposite of love is love
I do not believe the opposite of love is hate
I believe that love just is
Love is
love
love yourself free
