About this listen

What does it mean to know something?

Of course - no shortage of answers to that question.

But of all that knowing is, it is not less than relationship.

It’s to enter a kind of companionship.

To know means to be known.

And if all knowing is companionship -

then care would always be at its core.

So how would that change you and I and the world around us? Thats the adventure I'd like to invite you on in this short series.

When knowing is something we do at a distance as a removed observer.2. And When knowing one thing warps how we experience everything - a tunneled existence.Let’s start there.Let’s start at a distance, and make our way through a tunnel…If you'd like to continue the conversation, you can find me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcpriddy/
