Best We Can Do?

The Best We Can Do?

Are we doing the best we can?

Has anyone... ever?

If you know me, and some of you do, you may have heard me go off on this topic before.  But it keeps coming up and is worth exploring.

Let me elucidate.

Mastery

Sunwukong by fuckorange

Like most of you, I am interested in... obsessed, perhaps, by the concept of mastery. There is truly nothing more breathtaking or inspiring than to witness a true master at work.  It matters not what their art may be, their utter genius makes a fan even of people who would normally be averse to the form.

Controlled Folly

All action and participation in illusion is folly.

So said Don Juan (Matus)...
                     and Siddartha Guatama, more or less...

If either of those two pillars of humanity actually existed.
