The poet Keats said a creative needs to be,
โ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ง ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฌ, ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ฌ, ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐๐ญ๐ฌ, ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐๐ง๐ฒ ๐ข๐ซ๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐๐๐๐ญ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ฌ๐จ๐ง.โ
And I think that applies to humans in general. To have empathy and to grow we need to accept the world is uncertain.
We should be comfortable with seeing a multitude of perspectives. Holding too tight to oneโs own view or institutionalised dogmatic assertions stunts growth & diminishes our ability to love.
