The Real Work: The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment.
- Jalal Ud-Din Rumi

The Real Work
It may be that when we no longer know what to do
we have come to our real work,and that when we no longer know which way to go
we have come to our real journey.The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
The impeded stream is the one that sings.
~ Wendell Berry, Collected Poems
The seeker, the searcher, the possessor of the open mind, the curious mind, revels in bafflement. Revels in experimentation. Those who think they know what life is really about are misinformed. And boring.
