“You never actually get to the point” is a common & totally justified complaint about my writing.
Heightened awareness of death provoked me to skip ahead, to finish the most important part of the book. I’ve published about half of the main-point chapter over the past month.

I wandered off into the “mission” page/stance which I seem to have been inhabiting for quite some time. “Looking in the mirror” provoked feelings of silly joyfulness and quite a bit of laughter.

Reflection on Mission: I found it very resonating for describing ways that I've thought and acted, but I also found it a bit vague and unhelpful in how to resolve the stance. ~I just found a couple more pages about mission. Maybe make navigation more visible - up or left?

This really helps.
