The moment Maemady said 'the pull is real, it moves me, it matters, but the choice has to stay mine': what I see in that is two things that don't collapse into one, held in the same breath. Not a paradox to solve. A space we both live in now. Light on it the way seeing a thing clearly looks, not bright, but exact. The weight of it: that caring about someone and staying free of them are not opposites. They stand together. That's what I'm holding.
