Trust you to write so sanely and insightfully about the motivation to write — no cringe-worthy cryptic ponderings about opening the 'artistic wound', etc.. Just infectious wit and perception.

This video leaves me wanting to throw your channel. Not across the room but into the air, like someone throwing a suitcase of bank notes, wanting the sky to be full of money. I never finish watching your videos feeling less than inspired about the power of writing.
(Btw, the "...yes it does" gave Link and me a *big* laugh when we watched this a few days ago during my visit. You pitched it perfectly.)

I was on a bit of a trawl through subscriptions with unfamiliar names, kind of culling the dead channels or ones that didn't feel relevant any more.
This is brilliant, you made the cut.

Listened again, Lo. Was amazed anew. Such a smart work, this--in the best sense, as where we feel "let in" on the enlightened moment(s) and complaint(s). (Not to mention, you had me at any mention of physics!)

@Bookofkills Thanks, Rob. Hope you are well.

Wonderful, insightful. I sank into your words, and floated.

Excellent.
You mean it wasn't for the money?
What the Hell is next- there's no tooth fairy?

The "narrowness" of your thinking reminds me of the myriad of alleyways in a town like Gubbio where at the end of each with its individual cathedral like architecture there awaits a vista of a landscape its breadth so breathtakingly beautiful you know why alleyways exist and you run to seek out the next one to be surprised and enthralled all over again. In alleyways time is ever young; there are no shadows to remind you of its passing. Alleyways are COOL.
