Pond Water
Let's be clear.
In my office, I have a jar of pond water. It's a mixture of grit, sand, silt, and other pond-y stuff. When I shake it up, I'm reminded of how most of us move through our days. Life's ingredients suspended by the churn. When we want some clarity, we can pause, allowing the big bits to settle. But if we need things to be really clear, it will take more time, a lot more time.
