The Deeper Journey: Biology, Culture, and Consciousness

Reflections on Trust and Human Nature

There are conversations that begin with a particular question and, somewhere along the way, reveal that the question was never quite the point. What begins here with biology, paternity, relationships, and the often-confounding dynamics between men and women eventually turns inward, toward the more fundamental question of how honestly we can perceive ourselves and the world around us.

At some point, outsourcing our understanding of ourselves becomes its own kind of dependency. There is another possibility: becoming curious again, investigating what we think we know, and learning to trust the extraordinary intelligence of the organism we inhabit.
