From my recent article, Lost and Found, via the Crush + Lovely Field Guide.

I get lost all the time. On my better days, I get lost intentionally. Lost can be much more than a step in the wrong direction or an act of aimless wandering. Lost is not necessarily dumb, blind, confused or misguided. Lost is not a ship without a rudder. Surely, to be lost should not imply that one is forgotten, and it should never be mistaken for mere absence.

Lost can be purposeful. Lost often leads to finding and creating. Lost can be, and frequently is, rewarding. Lost is an honest, open state of questioning. And in order to find the things worth questioning, you have to start by getting lost.
