During my readings today, I found two instances of eunoia in sentences. I’ve seen plenty of beautiful thought in my lifetime, but today is the first time I saw the encapsulation of it in that word: and to have seen it twice in seemingly disconnected places no less!
I’ve heard that a word can be made one’s own by using it three times in a sentence. I’ve also heard that as soon as you publish your words, they’re not yours anymore.
What’s the word for growing increasingly anxious? I had to refer to my copy of Kant on The Critique of Judgment to remind myself of the word for the antonym of ridiculous just so I could satisfactorily conclude this without expending the content.

beautiful word brad, tks u. luvverly pic too. and the structure for me evokes the sort of whimsical problem-solving engineering of a 10yr old with a meccano set. eunoia indeed…

yet
neither suffices

can the dancer be separated from the dance

your eunoia
stimulates beyond normal ranges
