Your question How much of this is mine to fix?

The spread

  1. The rim Ladder Rungs, order, and a rise that requires one step at a time. What to avoid: Skipping a step and rebuilding it later.
  2. The middle Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.
  3. The bottom Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the first shape is a curve, and curves mean a change of direction rather than an arrival.

Tree holds the middle and points at a relationship running on shared history rather than current pleasure.

The final shape is a circle, and circles in the grounds mean a conversation returning to its starting point until someone changes a line.
