“Let us not live life in abstractions but in concrete moments.
If we want to exist, we must exist “with”, and that “with” is most relevant when we live related. Living with others enlightens the existential significance of our presence in the world. (“Better a good neighbor than a faraway friend.”)”

“Writing letters may be an outdated way of communication for many, but they still have value. When letters are no longer objects in downtime but subjects in motion, they become vessels of meaning and carry fragments of the writer’s drive and emotional energy. ("Letter to unknown recipient “)”

“The cat-and-mouse scenery is not only about animals, but about our human condition. How do we live, how we are played, and how we might become the cat to another’s mouse? Play and malice, freedom and inescapability, survival and destruction are entwined. The trap is not only external. It is also within us, in the desires that ensnare us, the illusions we follow, and the systems we occupy. ( ‘The Mousetrap”)”

“Every so often, we see many people feel uncomfortable with facing the truth. The truth seems to be a brittle deer. We should, however, not fear the fragility of truth, for it creates openness to correction, learning, and growth. It fosters empathy, making inquiry, curiosity, and wisdom possible. Truth becomes less about possession and more about pursuit. (Is it a bird? Is it a plane?)”

“How come we think we are irrefutably right all the time? What makes us show off our rightness so often? If we agree that we don't just perceive the world, but we frame it, we must admit that errors and misunderstandings arise. Due to the differences in lived reality, we become more open to dialogue and are less addicted to carved certainty. (Is it a bird? Is it a plane?)”
