Ergebnis für "Rituale" in Autoren

Kafka is one of 161 inspired-and inspiring-minds, among them, novelists, poets, playwrights, painters, philosophers, scientists, and mathematicians, who describe how they subtly maneuver the many (self-inflicted) obstacles and (self-imposed) daily rituals to get done the work they love to do, whether by waking early or staying up late; whether by self-medicating with doughnuts or bathing, drinking vast quantities of coffee, or taking long daily walks.

This piece is divided into five sections in assorted genres. The first section is a personal essay on the subject of rituals. It deals with observations on my process of obtaining rituals as part of my life and of what rituals mean to me. The second section is a reflection essay on writing as an integral ritual in my life. The following segment contains poems about tea. Tea drinking is a major contemplative ritual for me. The fourth segment includes journal entries on my routine of walking. Finally, there is a brief afterward wrapping up the piece.
