Just did this scan of something i am not sure we have had before. There is a green dark and not very good scan floating around from years ago that may be this painting, but it is inaccurate and inferior, so happy to present this one
Kevin McDonald in The Gay Watcher (2022) dir. Michael Henry, Paul McGovern Jr.
On Being, Sanity, and Abject Wonder
The only sane response to being is abject wonder.
Indeed, when we drift from sanity we’ve done but untethered from wonder, and its bedfellow, unknowing.
Our lives are short and prone to fraying at the edges, when not coming undone entirely.
Frantically trying to keep them together we lose sight of the wider context in which they exist, as but twisted fibrous strands in the threads that weave the fabric of reality.
These strands, too comprised of but smaller, loosely relating bits of this and that hold together with but the friction that we have a tendency to complain of and otherwise condemn.
Constantly we seek release from the tension that holds us (and indeed all things) together, instead of finding ourselves stilled at the profundity of the ability and seeming willingness of anything to come together and hold on amidst the void that envelopes, runs through, and otherwise pervades as it all.
We know and can know relatively little about the wider picture. But a lack of knowing isn’t at all the problem, rather a lack of inference and feeling that renders the gratitude, the surrender, and yes, the wonder that springs from unknowing.
