I think disillusionment, in its literal meaning, is wholly desirable. I donβt want to live my life believing in and living according to illusions. As much as possible, I want to know the truth of my life, of the people I live with, and of the universe I live within.
I seek to be dis-illusioned, but I never ever ever want to become disenchanted. This life, this universe β they are wondrous! They are magical in the realest sense of that word. The more disillusioned I become, the more I find that to be true.
Today, I give you this blessing: May you be ever disillusioned and never disenchanted.
There is currently a shortage of drawings by me because Iβm trying to move house, a thing that, Iβm learning, takes a lot of time. Things will be spotty on the illustration front until mid-November. Today, please enjoy this enchanting folk art painting of flying flamingos which I instructed an AI to create.
βWould you throw a lifetime away? Would throw a diamond away?β I canβt remember if Iβve shared this song before. If I have, thatβs ok. I love it so much. (Spotify)
