the question isn't whether something is 'false' or 'true', it's "does it work?"

which carries inside it the hidden question "for whom?"

and both of which imply "how do you know?"

I see a lot of people running around worrying (or not!) about whether what they believe is true, ignoring whether what they believe is working for them or even how to know what they actually want.

which is where these alternate ways of knowing can be helpful.

or not

the tools we use are also used to evaluate the effectiveness of the tools.

and somewhere nestled in this magpie's nest, this tangled ribcage bower, there. a gleam

the heart's true desire
