Thanks Dominic, I’m a massive fan of Le Guin, so not surprised there are parallels. I think she taught me that stories are philosophy and philosophy can be just overblown striving for personal meaning. Getting into the weeds (or the fourfoil - thanks for that!) and ‘being with’ the world and ourselves, might just be enough…

A timely provocation in the midst of my current headspace. Thanks for this.
Thanks Cynthia... I hope you're OK!!
