Make a Discovery

"A quote from W.S. Merwin: 'I have with me all that I do not know. I have lost none of it.' For me that’s where creativity dwells, that’s where the discovery is, that is where curiosity leads us — to that place of both not knowing and unknowing." 
~ Terry Tempest Williams


Begin writing about everything you do not know. Go for the questions. How will you extend your creativity to push barriers? 









Consider the artichoke. Imagine who thought to rake teeth through the leaves to eat the pulp?  

Who pursued into the sweetness of the heart past all the prickles? 

Crack open creativity.

          Where will you investigate? 

                           What hides that needs revealing? 

"It may be that when we no longer know what to do we have co me to our real work and that when we no longer know which way to go we have begun n our real journey." 

                                     - Wendell Berry






Who holds a mystery to delve into?  

Push into a place of secrecy.

Ask why?

Dwell in an unknown. 




Make a discovery by pushing words.
