    Re: Kaminar

    I’m starting to hate the word “safe”. The whole idea that everything, or anything, can be or should be safe is infantile. Nothing worth doing or discussing is “safe”, and if you are only focused on being “safe” then you are not being challenged or being allowed to grow and evolve.

    Actually, that is the crux of it, the more safe something is, the less it can grow & evolve, because the pressure of danger is what makes us evolve and develop.
