The Monday Morning Memo


Art is the language of the brain’s right hemisphere; science is the language of the left. And the tug-of-war between the two gives us a funny, dual consciousness; the heart whispers one thing while the mind declares another.

This is why the hardest choices in life are the choices between two good things: mercy and justice, loyalty and honesty, the impulse of play and the discipline of restraint: right brain and left.

To create
 art
 is to lift a fish from the water of the unconscious. Water, like emotion, constantly moves and flows. Fish are unresolved ideas about which your views are being shaped and formed. What will you pull up from the deep?

I believe our instinctive interpretation of the languages of the collective unconscious can be explained to the logical left brain. This is the basis of our 2-day class, Portals and the 12 Languages of the Mind. To understand the 12 languages (shape, color, radiance, etc.) is to become more persuasive, more effective in your ability to express yourself, better able to mold the emotions of others. Taught once a year by Roy H. Williams, the next class is coming up Sept. 21-22.

Random Quote:

“Dear Reader,

We wouldn’t need books quite so much if everyone around us understood us well. But they don’t. Even those who love us get us wrong. They tell us who we are but miss things out. They claim to know what we need, but forget to ask us properly first. They can’t understand what we feel – and sometimes we are unable to tell them, because we don’t really understand it ourselves. That’s where books come in. They explain to us ourselves and to others. They explain us to ourselves and to others, and make us feel less strange, less isolated, and less alone. We might have lots of good friends, but even with the best friends in the world, there are things that no one quite gets. That’s the moment to turn to books. They are friends waiting for us anytime we want them, and they will always speak honestly to us about what really matters. They are the perfect cure for loneliness. They can be our very closest friends.”

- Alain de Botton, A Velocity of Being, Letters to a Young Reader, p. 24
