We tend to see reality as stable and reliable, but it’s volatile and unpredictable. - James Low

One of the most intelligent case studies in design is the Chinese tea cup. They’re made without handles simply because if it’s too hot to touch, it’s too hot to drink.

Humans naturally want to add more. Add a cardboard sleeve, add a warning on the outside of the cup, add a handle. The result of all these things never cools down the actual contents.

Can we fully surrender to this experience, to "being" in this moment, rather than merely "becoming" in the next?
