TREE 728: Nopinionated

TREEpeat 212

I can form an opinion
instantly.
Like boiling water and
a Bombay Bad Boy –
burning hot,
super spicy,
lacking nutrition,
a rich source of belching regret.

Lately I’ve been trying,
with occasional success,
to have fewer opinions,
to stop locking in my ideas
while in a state of ignorance,
to learn first and talk later –
much much later,
to replace hot takes
with burning
curiosity.

Okay, but here’s a hot take anyway. The most important thing, when drawing a male humanoid robot, is prominent pectoral shapes. Drawing mice is a free-for-all. Make your own rules.

The world is not facing an opinion shortage. But there is always a need for more curiosity. Curiosity can grow into knowledge, creation and wisdom – things that endure.

Grow slowly
