It’s not that most of the time I feel afraid, or like I can’t express myself. In fact, the point is exactly that I don’t, I just feel normal. My normal is pretty roomy, compared to most, I mean I’ve carved out some breathing room and I don’t bump my head or stub my toe or any of that shit. But that’s part of the problem, really, it’s easy to get comfortable.

The subtlety of it is what’s most amazing, how you can get out of the habit of seeing it. Because it’s negative space most of the time. But I’m starting to repeat myself.
I really like Egan’s point about needing to remember that concepts are what we think with much more than they’re what we think about. Very similar idea. And nothing can be done without good tools.
