Thank you for this thoughtful, beautifully written essay. I also read your Letter this morning and confess these past 40 days I've been feeling grief and sorrow and struggling to find joy and hope but I found both in your writing. I shall be printing this essay and tucking it into my planner so I can return to it again and again and ponder the questions and respond to the prompts.
Loving this exploration. Forgive me for this I wanted to quote this but think there a missing word here:
This simple reframe helped me see that there is one way of seeing, that of categorizing and naming objects. This way of seeing denies or lessens the importance of the space between things, as well as the things that we overlook, and also how everything affects everything else. For example, the quality of light affects what and how we see objects.

You had me at Santana. Will listen properly when my wife's not home.
I love where you're going here.
