I have an athletic brother. He's always running or climbing a mountain. He sails in the open ocean.

I used to think he was hiding his inner thoughts because he claimed he didn't have any interest in examining his motivations.

About twenty years ago I started swimming laps. His only comment was that it must be boring. Face in the water, you can't look at the sights. It's not like figuring out the technical aspects of a climb or navigating.

I don't think my brother is hiding his inner thoughts. I don't think he has inner thoughts. Creativity isn't activated. He was born without it. I think if he wanted to, he could cultivate it but he has no motivation towards it.

Rats.
