i feel a great kinship with people who yearn to quench their intellectual interests. 

where passion meets obsession

find obscure sources, dig through history, jump down rabbit holes, pace in circles, ramble, draw diagrams, journal, build communities. 

could be a night bender or years of focus. 

just for fun.

educator, optimist, explorer. /uniswaphooks

Absolutely, I think love plays an important part in that… particularly within the kinship you mentioned, and the deeper connections we form with others on that journey. Perhaps the greater purpose is sharing the knowledge we discover.

i was going to counter with “love” but you can love your intellectual interests
