Pursuing Wisdom, Meaning, and Courage in a Frantic World

Friends and Lovers are Better When They’re Strangers
Why not Knowing is Our Best Path to Knowing
Slowly and with great predictability, we lose interest in what our friend or lover might still become, what he or she is right now beneath the layers we've already peeled away. I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this but you don't know your loved one as well as you think you do. And they don't know you as well as they presume. This fact, something we know and quietly ruminate on, frequently pushes us toward fear responses instead of those ignited by love or fascination.
Happiness is a gift, but it’s also fleeting and never guaranteed. The greatest thing we can do with our time on earth is pursue a life defined by meaning, curiosity, wisdom, and a greater connection with others. This comes by developing our character, strengthening those around us, exploring all of life’s mysteries, and leaving everything we touch in a better state.
The Lion’s Mouth is dedicated to the exploration of ideas and discussions that honor these endeavors, always upholding free thought and expression, a respect for the complexity and beauty in all of existence, a geniune love for others, an abundance of generosity, a hunger for learning and intellectual pursuit, and an unwaivering interest in the vast potential of life.
