>>4008971That's a good quote. I think when I hit my mid-twenties I traded a lot of intellectual and artistic pursuits for the experiential. Tried to live more intuitively and expressed myself through private physical activities. Discovering the grace of my body felt like making art. It brought me so much happiness.
Now I'm in my early thirties and probably have an undiagnosed illness of some kind. My body is racked with pain every day and any activity makes it worse. So I come back around to the intellectual and figure out what physical activities are worthwhile and sustainable.
It's in this context that the subject is especially important to me right now. It's a homecoming for me and either everything is smaller and less grand than I remember or I've just grown and been away. So I'm considering things again.
