I came across a quote today, attributed to Pablo Picasso. "Computers are useless, they can only give you answers" (I looked it up, seems like it might be his, although slightly misquoted, he responding about " enormous new mechanical brains or calculating machines"......)
I think many then assume, sure the artist isn't about answers. But it made me pause. We, as humans, spend a remarkable amount of time looking for answers, unsatisfied with answers, disputing answers, thinking we have all the answers, fighting over answers.
And what happens when you get the answer. Often, you do one of the above. Or, you judge yourself and/other based on that answer. Are you happy once you get an answer? Satisfied or at peace?
What would happen if you just got ok with having questions? Being curious? and not needing answers.
