Social media is doing this to us.
The mind is getting narrower and narrower and narrower.
What is she having for breakfast?
You know, all these sort of trivial, banal things that we're worried about, right?
And so I'm trying to explode all of that and get you back into thinking about what lies outside that circle.
And that's what I call the sublime.
Well, about my book, I guess.
We just did.
You know, because... I hate to say it, but because of my stroke...
uh i had to i can't type so i had to hand write this entire book wow and that means handwriting it then doing another notebook and editing it in another notebook then editing it in another than editing and editing and then finally dictating it right into the computer and then trying to edit it with one hand and then
I couldn't take a walk if I needed to clear my mind, right?
I'm sort of trapped in my office.
And I'm somebody who loves exercise, loves hiking, being out in the world.
And whenever my other books, I felt blocked, I would go on an amazing hike and all these ideas would come to me.
I was trapped in this world and I couldn't, I had to handwrite everything.
And yet the book is about the sublime.
I had to feel it.
How am I going to feel it when I'm like a bird in a cage?
I had to overcome all of these things in my head and in my body.
And so it took me seven years to write this book, almost seven years.
