Realizing Empathy | Blog

Some people
are difficult
to work with.

We say that
as if difficulty
is abnormal.

Would life be better
if life were easier?

Or is part of what makes life
better
is that it is
difficult?

When we admit
that easy
does not exist
in the absence
of difficulty,
we realize

“Why
would they say
do I have such a hard time
appreciating
my employee?”
asked the founder

“Are you looking for it?”
I asked.

“looking?”
he asked

“Are you looking“

It’s the people watching the game
who appreciate
the amazing ducks
the sharp hooks
the well-timed upper cuts
regardless of the win

With intelligence
comes knowledge.

With wisdom
comes sight.

When an artist explores
she has nothing more
than a hunch,
a “hmm…,”
a sense
of wonder.

When an artist produces
she has a vision,
a set of methods,
resources.

Exploration
is often hampered by our expectation
by our insecurity
fueled by the misunderstanding
that we need
a vision,
a set of methods,
and resources.
