Quiet Considerations

Saturday, April 25, 2026

Good morning, Twfw. O/

With all the get-it-done-quick make it flashy, make it sell, look at me LOOK! ways so prolific in the world right now, I thought some might find interesting, and reassuring, to be reminded there are other ways to live a good life. So I post my morning journal online for free.

What a poet, or Artist of any kind, considers worthy of note, things like AI and big business deals aren't much help with.

It's easy to forget with all the sensationalism that there are other valid ways to think about and live your life.

The quiet consideration of people in quiet rooms is responsible for all the great ideas and accomplishments in the world. It's where and how the most helpful and most beautiful creations come to life.

From: The quiet considerations of people most of the world assumes are lonely, but are busy at work using the solitude to help shape their dreams.

Life is the process of making dreams real. Great accomplishments require a great dream and dreamer to imagine them.

So Artists and Inventors must be alone and quiet to be fed supplies to do their work.

Think of Imagination like a prompt fed to AI. The more precise and in depth the information given the Large Language Model the better the reply received.

So an Artist, Inventor, Theoretical Physicist (Einstein sat and daydreamed for days), gets alone to gather the materials necessary to make real their dream.

Time spent 'idle' or 'doing nothing' is actually time spent gathering materials. As long as part of the day is spent making something real, idle time is always part of the work.

There is no AI without the initial dream that makes the prompt.

There is no work of Art without the initial dreaming to build the Art with.

Think of Imagination like potter's clay. The required amount is necessary to make the thing real.

I'll keep my journal online for free. At the very least, for a reminder to creative spirits that we aren't alone being alone in our work.

Hopefully you find some comfort here.

Thanks again for reading.
