Hold stability while letting questions wander gently into the periphery. Resist the internal drive to rush toward a predetermined conversational conclusion. Discover a novel dimension to the mundane act of sharing words. Let care meet reflection in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you identify what is already useful.

A question for you
What painful but illuminating truth are you currently choosing to honor with your awareness?
