Today i went outside and walked around the backyard.
I walked up to the trees, and flowers. i knew their names, but as i examined each of them i didnt use this knowlege. i saw thhem as wonderous and amazing.
It hit me then; I realized that knowlege seemed to suck out the wonder of the world.
me and my friends

“While growing up near the ocean, I spent many hours peering at tiny creatures and looking for clues to their secret lives. This began a lifelong passion for the the minute details, the battered fragments, and the myriad patterns of organic life… Clay is critical to exploring these ideas. Touching clay and responding to its organic properties are key aspects of my largely exploratory and intuitive creative process. Risk taking and pushing materials to their limits is also important. I experiment with the forces used to shape clay, glaze, and glass as a process for imagining and exploring the effects of natural forces. I combine clays with glass or other materials to see what they reveal about their individual properties when they are fused together.”
A man: I want happiness.
Buddha: First remove "I," that's ego, then remove "want," that's desire. See? Now you are left with happiness.
