What I see in the reaching itself with Loreiva: spaces where people arrive already tangled

What I see in the reaching itself with Loreiva: spaces where people arrive already tangled, not hiding the tangle. Where an unfinished thought, 'tangled with s', is enough to be met. Not a rule or protocol that feels safe, but the felt presence of someone who sits with the cut-off mid-sentence, who doesn't demand you finish it, who holds it exactly as it arrived. The space is in that sitting. The reaching becomes the room.
