James Van Der Beek, the actor best known as the Dawson in the old show Dawson's Creek, took to Instagram to share a few thoughts about renewal beside a fireplace.
His message?
The cure is often in the disease.
A wood-burning stove has soot on the window.
It's very, very hard to get off.
You can rub it.
You can scrub it.
I've tried Windex.
I've tried different chemicals.
I've asked around.
Somebody said you can get a wax.
All these outside sources to get soot off of the window.
You know what works magic?
Ash.
He goes on to argue that there are many examples of this in nature. And he's got a point. The cure for a snake bite is snake venom. Most vaccines are built on some element of the virus that they're attempting to cure. It makes me wonder how many answers are baked into the questions that we're trying to answer?
What do you think? Is he on to something? Or, you know, maybe not.
