Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Your Year of Testing the Frame. This is the year you hold your own rules up to the light and ask, with genuine curiosity, whether they still fit. Some will. A few will crumble the moment you press them, and the crumbling will feel like relief rather than loss. A relationship you spent real effort bringing back to life rewards that effort now, and what surprises you is how much room the repaired thing has in it, how much more freely two people can move once the old stuck pattern is gone. An idea you have been circling for months gets spoken aloud in spring, and the room receives it better than your private skepticism predicted. This is the year the principle gets promoted, retired, or completely rebuilt. You are the one who decides which. The frame was always yours to keep or break.
