I reached into my mailbag during today’s podcast and found this letter from a faithful listener.
OK, it was my brother.
Or, as he likes to call himself, ‘the magnificent brother from the new world’.
Jodie,
I’m catching up on podcasts and am in the middle of listening to #47. I hope you don’t mind but I have a question. In regards to your concept that we try to figure out the problems by going beyond our own perceptions and experiences to solve social ills which takes a lot of work and intelligence. (If I interpreted that correctly). Have you thought about the idea that by the time we figure out a solution there is a whole new problem? Or that when we try to fix things they actually become worse. I think of the Arab Spring as an example. Any thoughts?
Hope you are well.
Love,
Mike
This episode is dedicated to my brother and to problem solvers everywhere.
