Or the navigations officer, because he couldn’t have been sleeping during one of the critical stages: the arrival. Or the cook, because the freezer he said he was in (looking for food) wasn’t working without the generator. 🤷🏼♂️
Nice essay. I loved your sentence: "Just like there’s a huge difference between knowledge and wisdom, there’s an almost endless chasm between awareness and acceptance." This is true - for both lateral thinking and for spiritually mindful thinking. The key in both cases is "effortless acceptance," which is also a prerequisite for spiritual enlightenment.
