When tending to reflection, consciously allow a little more unhurried time. Pacing yourself honors the process of both giving and receiving true care. Accept that some care can be expressed without demanding finality or closure. Let care meet initiative in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you give an unfinished idea a little room.
