Hello,
This week's edition looks at where to find ultimate value. Stephanie Davies-Arai and I discuss parenting and the pitfalls of compassion when linked to trans ideology. Then, from the archives, ponder the purpose of life.
** Where Do You Go To Look for the Ultimate Value?
------------------------------------------------------------
The answer in the story of King Arthur and the Holy Grail is this:
They all decide to go off, and they all look at the forest. Each knight sees where the forest looks the darkest to him. And that is where he starts.
That is wisdom. I learned that from Carl Jung: In sterquiliniis invenitur — that which you most need to find will be found where you least want to look.
But what is so interesting — and I did not expect this — is that if you peer into the darkest dark, you find the brightest light, and I never expected that. But that is what happened. I thought, “Oh, this is horrible. Horrible even beyond what I could comprehend.”
But the light that can overcome that exists. It is actually real. And I think the instinct we have manifests itself within us as meaning.

"If you send out 50 résumés, you are lucky to get one positive response, so the rejection rate is extremely high, which is good to know as a baseline. It is not you; it is that everybody gets rejected 95% of the time. You only have to succeed once." ( ([link removed]) Share this on Twitter

"I believe that people should say what they believe to be true. That is your obligation; it is also your right. But it comes with an obligation. I don't believe that true speech is possible without free speech." (Share this on Twitter) ([link removed])
"You cannot negotiate from a position of weakness if you want to push your career forward. First of all, you do, in fact, have to push it forward because if you're competent and silent, you will be ignored." ( ([link removed]) Share this on Twitter ([link removed]) )

What Is the Purpose of Life? | With Mohammed Hijab & Jonathan Pageau | Jordan B Peterson
Dr. Peterson:
"Things are shaky at the moment on many fronts, and we have this opportunity in front of us. All of us have a very abundant world, right? Where everyone has enough — and maybe more than enough — and we are shaky about that. We are not sure that is acceptable, and we are not sure everybody should have it. We are not sure everybody deserves it — even ourselves — and we are retreating into our corners in some real sense."
