Carried: Shin Problems (II)
“The move is required, everyone can see it's required, and I am going to make this take three years.”
A change that circumstances have already decided on is met with resistance rather than refusal — the destination is not disputed, only every step toward it. Delay costs more than the change would, and the delaying produces the stumbles that then get cited as reasons for more caution. The reasoning is historical: in childhood, change reliably meant deterioration, so the safest available position was to stay exactly where things were. The shins take the knocks of a body moving badly. What the shape asks for is one step taken at full commitment rather than several taken half-way.
Lot lingering at the gate while the city burns, needing to be taken by the hand and led out. The form implies a task: to walk out under one's own power.
