That Which Is Most Natural

Where one person has voiced rationalizations about tradition and authority it is only natural that another person should respond with rationalizations about immediacy and authenticity. This is not a problem characterized by institutions versus individuals, or of the old versus the young. It is a problem of all people in all places. What it really is is the problem of subsisting verbal questions and answers for the reality of life itself. If we can only allow enough time and be about the matter of actually living our own lives simply and well, then the questions often answer themselves if when we allow them their own space in which to do so.
