What I like about this is that is the sound of the other hand clapping. Mine is a “cognitive” heart — an emotional journey that strips the pretty off of “false friend.” Marley K. 's is cognitive mind — closes all the intellectual escape hatches.
I think it might be time for folks to stop playing. The good news is that the real folk — imperfect of act but pure of will — are out there doing the work and a piece like what you’ve written here makes the path forward IMPOSSIBLE to miss.
I love this.
