Ahhh carrots for you for no particular "reason." I love this: "various spiritual traditions consider playfulness to be a Divine quality. " OMG! I have always loved playfulness in people. I can be deadly serious and then act in a clownish way that makes people not take me seriously--the Wilde situation indeed. The viewpoints of the three artists do make sense together because paradox is the true nature of our glorious universe. Play in children is sometimes thought of as preparation for adult life. But we should never lose our playfulness. Let's be silly; let's be funny; let's make dopey faces and then vote like our lives depend on it, work hard, and search always for truth. Cezanne is my favorite artist. Carrots for me to play with.
