searching
Searching is not the thrill of finding the unknown but the ritual of wandering through a familiar mess. Those who proclaim discoveries merely redefine the boundaries of their own ignorance. The more progress you crave, the deeper you get lost in an endlessly branching maze of options. It’s a curious creature that delights in drowning in seas of information rather than retrieving the right data. In the end, what you gain are excuses for what you didn’t find and fresh pretexts for more searching.
