JW Reflections from Death Day

Something from my Death Day review seems to want to be attached here ... as if reflections of unimagined conversations to come...

From June 2020 ... 

 "insights come from unexpected places … places where we’ve never been before, either physically, mentally, spiritually or emotionally. Doing something I didn’t particularly want to do expanded me, changed the way I look at the world and my definition of art. (Reflection from a Gaultier museum exhibit I had no interest in going to.)

"One of the challenges of this stage of life is that we’ve seen so much, done so much, that few experiences result in new insights. ... deliberately doing things outside our comfort zones is a path to new ways of thinking and understanding ourselves and the world. 

"This doesn’t have to be as dramatic as sky-diving or becoming a monk. Sometimes startling insights come from a book, a museum, a new friendship. It seems like the key is that it is a place or experience where you’ve never been or thought you even wanted to be.

August, 2020 - Wonder dates ... exploring something that provokes awe and wonder ... perhaps this would be like creating a field guide
