Musings
As I get older, I've experienced multiple instances of good turning bad, and bad turning good. It's encouraged me to tone down the judgment and reactive negativity. On a related note, I've come to believe that true abundance isn't defined by time or material, but from possibility itself. Who knows what opportunities we'll be able to perceive, if we don't get tangled up in a shortage-minded worldview?

On my creative process…
This may sound weird, but I see creative expression as akin to drilling into the Earth, extracting molten iron, and forming it into a solidified structure above the surface. Creative people need to go into a sea of potential and concepts (the molten iron), stay focused so they can extract it and cool it down, then form it into a structure on the surface that others can appreciate (paintings, books, movies, music, etc.).

"In his #novel #AFoolsKabbalah, #SteveStern #writes in a manic whirl of disturbing and hilarious images as he follows the great historian of #Jewish #mysticism #GershomScholem on his journey to gather up the remains of a vanished civilization."
"Steve #Stern’s new novel, A Fool’s #Kabbalah, is a #comedy about #tragedy and a tragedy about comedy. It is a #mystical #fable of real events and a realistic account of mysticism. There are Jewish #jokes and Jewish jokesters and #Nazis who torture and kill the jokesters. #Kafka, Kabbalah, #Zionism, and the #shtetl of #Zyldzce (pronounced, perhaps, as “zilch”); #WalterBenjamin, #HannahArendt, love for a #rabbi’s beautiful daughter, and an #occult midnight marriage to an unearthly albino girl in a white gauze dress; shit jokes, fart jokes, raw misery, deep #philosophy, brutal #history and brutal #fantasy, broken hearts and heartfelt joy—these exuberantly disparate topics are somehow, improbably, made to cohere."
