We can live out what we want to see in the world
True diplomacy = safety
We have to decide what work is ours.
The world we build will need a greater focus on care
Saying no is saying yes to your work, to what you need and what you want.
Sometimes curiosity doesn’t feel safe; just opening the news…
Life provides some cruel limits
Overwhelm shuts us down
Example - we’re not here to service the machine
Curiosity just requires that you turn your head an inch

— Robert and Michele Root-Bernstein in Thinkering
What we want to point out here is that the physical manipulation of things, like direct personal experience of any kind, generates sensory images of all sorts and thus enables thought. Hands-on tinkering leads to minds-on thinkering. Bodily engagement with nature teaches much more than any amount of words or numbers in science books. Doing produces a personal understanding that symbols simply can't.
