WHY

Why is such a tricky question.

Maybe even the trickiest.

There are times when it is so completely not useful to ask why.


The resistance-filled why, which takes me into self-interrogation and blame.

But there is also the helpful why.


The one that is loving, curious and receptive.

"You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star."

 ~Friedrich Nietzsche


"Why does the eye see a thing more clearly in dreams than the imagination when awake?"
~~ Leonardo da Vinci

This beautiful monarch butterfly landed on my hand in Christchurch, New Zealand  when we went to the City Museum in February 2012.  Such a wonderful sensation.
