The other day my daughter asked me why things have to cost money. Why does our world have to revolve around trade of goods and services for money? Does it make us better people? Does it make anything better, or do we just take for granted that that’s how the world must be structured in order for this understanding of linear progress to work?

These horizons are deeply overlapping.

Are we all moving forward together? Or, do we expect that some people move forward so progressively and drag the rest of us with them? What is this progress that we are moving towards?

I’m having some deep existential crises today. What is this process that I am trusting? It’s trusting that life is happening regardless of how I feel about it.

Happy Winter Solstice.

Love,
