Steady Dissolution

Stone weathering under sunlight offers an apt analogy for focusing intently on what *is*, bypassing prediction and accepting decay as ongoing. This calibrating attention demonstrates boundaries aren’t pre-existing but arise from consistently choosing which possibilities to forgo—a cost in potential futures, as explored by thinkers like Alfred North Whitehead. Such observation suggests causality isn't about locating definitive origins, but rather applying interpretation retrospectively, prompting us to consider whether naming an event actively shapes it more than passively understanding it. Relationships thus emerge through witnessing, not imposition.
