I started this piece about a month ago, and have done 4 sittings with it so far, and each time, I've felt something strange - the urge to finish it has diminished. Instead of trying to complete it, and getting frustrated that I can't, I'm actually enjoying having this in the corner, ever changing, but constantly familiar. Reaching for it feels like visiting a good friend who'll sit and listen, and hold everything you need to say, without flinching. And I'm not sure if I'm ready for that to end just yet, in case I can't find it again.
