Allowing for Discovery….

The difference between finding and discovering


There’s a big difference between finding and discovering, particularly in the world of being online.

It’s a subtle, and important difference.

Finding implies you were looking for something you have lost. Maybe your keys that you misplaced. Or an important document that disappeared.

To discover is different.

It means that you are putting an act of faith forward, that you are open to something new, something random, and not so random.

When you are open to discovery, the element of surprise and enlightenment, far exceeds that of finding something — or someone.
