I've been working and reworking parts of this book for a few months now. It may never see the light of day. But I wanted to at least get this little introductory essay out. Because I think folks need to be reminded.

It Depends…

The world wants you to believe in stark black and white. We’re told we must choose between freedom and safety, right and left, equality and merit, individualism and community. We’re told there’s always a correct answer, that compromise is weakness, and that any nuance means moral failure. But the real world doesn’t live in absolutes—it lives in shades and gradients, in the slow work of discernment.

Today, Freya experienced a sudden medical crisis. I found her lying limp and barely responsive. When we got her to the vet, her pulse, BP, and blood sugar were all dangerously low. Vet said if we'd waited an hour, she might not have survived.
