Inspired by The Joy of Fish by Zhuāngzǐ 莊子
You are not I; from what do you know whether I know the joy of fish?
子非我，安知我不知魚之樂？
How can I convey what I deem important to the world? Art truly presents a rare opportunity for the socialized self to engage in honest dialogue. Occasionally, I turn back to the words of Zhuangzi, a philosopher I admire, for guidance.
