We live in an age where technology is diverting us from human connection and psychological growth and health. The epidemics of loneliness, despair, suicide, and flight to violence and authoritarianism of the modern age can only be accelerated, not resolved, by the erasure of the human and the complexities of building positive, authentic relationships.
The Mysteries
A dear friend sent me this book, The Mysteries, as a gift. It’s a fable and illustrated storybook for adults created as a collaboration between Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes, and caricaturist John Kascht. It’s so cool and beautifully illustrated in textured black and white art that perfectly both tells the story and leaves lots of room for the adult imagination to fill in the emotions and gaps of the tale.
Is This Thing On?
I needed to create an introductory blog post to justify the existence of this place. So if you’ve read this far, thank you. Welcome! The truth is I’m here to share a little of the wondrous exploration of the beauty of life and living. There’s plenty of ugliness, as we all know. Maybe I’ll talk about some of that too at some point, but I’m fundamentally a very fortunate man filled with gratitude, and I expect that’s going to come through in anything I put up on this site.
