Went to a natural dye course last week and also got the play around a bit with weaving at the end. 👀 One of the takeaways from it is one can visually learn anything they want - with the right information, time, and patience.

But there are many dark forces that need to be fought with

a. Information censorship, from library burning throughout history to internet censorship to suppress the knowledge passing down.

b. Greedy people come up with different solutions yet without solving the root cause and keep draining people's time and energy - I realized that many problems can be solved with simple things, directly from nature instead of from labs or malls.

c. Entertainment is everywhere, distracting you from solving the problem yourself. So you keep depending on others, which leads to misery.

But the good news is that some of these knowledge are still here, living within the old generations and spreading in the hidden corners.
