“Speak out in acts; the time for words has passed and only deeds will suffice.”Alfred North Whitehead
The Rope
“a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:12
1. Wisdom
You’re wiser
than you think.
From where you stand, you can see the path(but you’re not the one who has to reach)
2. Vulnerability
This doesn’t work if you’re
perfect
You’re going to get your hands dirty(and you could both end up pretty bloody)

Not just quality
time
Anything is better than nothing(but don’t forget your anchor)
