I agree with ..."Kill all your darlings."<br /><br />I agree with you on "ask and you shall receive" but don't think it's an observation out of the blue or all that inspired. I've had it, we've discussed this kind of thing in other posts (I think under your post on Grace), and it's definitely 'out there' in the cultural air right now. Read Eisenstein ferkrisesakes! Check out his work at Reality Sandwich. He's goes over this stuff in great detail, and gets his info from others such as Joseph Chilton Pearce, Lewis Mumford, and particularly Lewis Hyde. Anthropology generally has been studying The Gift for decades. It's a fascinating area of study. I think asking is related to The Gift, because to do so in any hope depends on the kinds of community bonds only gift-giving seems able to form.Tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16258136994278139356noreply@blogger.com
