Fascinating! Very insightful and beautiful one liners that give meaning to your life but also to mine. One of your thoughts that I found very impactful is your concept about transparency, where the actor does not disappear, but becomes less insistent, less central. As I was weaning myself from a life of work, I adopted the quote that a "symbol of success is to become irrelevant". For me it meant to have established a line of succession that allow others to flourish as you, in fact, become less central. However, the irrelevant quote in its simplest way can be seen as a derogative expression, in terms of values and the meaning of one’s life. That’s why I will now adopt your “transparency “ concept that is a much better way of expressing what I mean. Lovely writing. 🙏

Jim, should I come to Paris to meet you for lunch? My schedule is pretty wide open except for May 7 and I’ll be here until May 17.

Tell me where to meet you and what Metro to go to.
