   @slowenough amen, brother. thanks for this. I have been trying to avoid saying "the idea is" and using "an, or one, or another idea is". I want to practice more open-ended thinking even when abstracting and reducing a big mess to something I can make sense of.

     If I could make one request, it might be to stop putting ONE thing at the center of things.

     Even TWO is really not many when you think about it.

     What would it would be like if there were FOUR or SEVEN even, what if you didn't know exactly how many things were at the center, at the root of things, at the root of whatever/whoever it is that you are trying to understand or engage? Embrace uncertainty and multiplicity in how you think, if you want to understand the world as it is. #uncertainty
