As Annie Dillard so aptly said, 'how you live your days is how you live your life.' I had a moment of reckoning when a colleague was talking about what she'd do when she retired - that retirement was at that point 30 years away. What part of that would you do now, I asked. And I've now spent my days since then answering that question for myself.
This is powerful stuff. What important questions you've asked - are we using ai to help us or is ai using us? are we in our life now or some imagined version? Thank you.
Your writing always seems to find me right when I need it. Thank you for the reminder.
Need to come back to this post as a reminder❤️

Simply lovely
Love your brain ♥️
So good as always!
Attention is not merely a cognitive act.
It is one of the deepest forms of participation in existence itself.
Brilliant read, live first, the photos will come later…I wrote something on this as well:
Enzo wanted it to be used.
Not shelved
not worshipped behind glass.
Dante warned of those
who clutch too tightly.
Drink the old bottle.
Use the fine china.
Drive the Ferrari.
And if it becomes a relic,
Let it be
Because it lived first.
For the Lord knows, life is too valuable and too short.
The nature of your attention determines the nature of your experience.
:)♥️ appreciate this gentle reminder yet urgent call. All we have is here
