Linearity is at once endless and the end.
It is the horizon and the long road ahead.
It is the calm after the storm.
Linearity is knowable, tangible, and replicable.
It is the voice of reason.
It is a concise thought.
It is decisive action.
Linearity is the hand placing the seed.
Linearity is the sharpness of a man’s jaw. The crude cut of his hips. The horizon that is his shoulders.
Linearity is the path from muzzle to target.
Velocity.
Going.
Gone.
Linearity is a determined mind.
A loyal friend.
The shortcut.
The blunt truth.
The flat line of a heart monitor.
Silence.
If Roundness is the question, Linearity is the solution.
While Roundness is the journey, Linearity is the path.
It is through Linearity that Roundness is given purpose.
Yet it is through Roundness that Linearity is given life.
Gratitudes
This week I’m grateful for the gifts of patience and humor which I believe are key components to thriving (as opposed to merely surviving).
