Had to share the creation of Ea from the Earthsea cycle… very Tao…

“Only in silence the word, Only in dark the light, Only in dying life: Bright the hawk’s flight On the empty sky.

“The Creation of Éa,” Ursula K. Le Guin

Definitely grateful to have this site and appreciative of the people that make it what it is. I check in multiple times a day and always find something new (or at least new to me), interesting and frequently useful!

The old web was great but it broke society in a different way and formed the basis of social media's current problems. Writing about your situation and expecting other people to desire to know you so much that they go out of their way to learn about you is not a substitute for 1-1 or 1-group interaction that formed the basis of human culture for centuries. If you want to do something revolutionary to start restoring a healthy society, once a day, call (or DM or text) someone from your contacts list and say "I saw something today that made me think of you, so I wanted to see how you're doing. What's new in your life?"
