Observe expression as you consider what can gracefully be set aside now. Perceive the recurring rhythm instead of demanding a final, absolute conclusion. Respecting this small border honors your capacity to begin anew later. Let expression meet perspective in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you consider what can be left open.
