Worth

The worth of something includes what you are willing to lose for it. No assurances, no safety, complete acceptance of the possibility and suffering of loss, even if facing the likelihood of despair, misery, and desolation. No desire to reduce scope and impose bounds to prevent loss, but to let all go free no matter what happens, for everything is fine however it turns out.

We love artists because they are willing to lose everything in exchange for tasting everything, without hesitation spent on practical or personal concerns.
