Early morning searching

I was looking for some inspiration this early morning and came across an interview with Lisa Nelson,  it is a conversation on her technique of "Pre-Tuning." She eloquently says, 

"By loosening the bonds of perceptual conditioning in the relative safety of the dance studio, grounded in the play of the body, to revisit the magical world of the child, pre-naming, rendering responsibility and a more direct, flexible and compassionate construction of reality with which to face the challenges of our ailing planet. It is my hope that the spirit of dialogue that is at the root of improvisational efforts in dance will inspire action and individual initiative in pursuit of a life that is worth living, in the theater and out."

This reminds me of the depth of knowledge that is out there, and reconfirms my desire to do something that is part of a life that is worth living (which is inherently already true).
