Perhaps that set the tone for where we went.\nI’ve been writing a new Field Note, sparked by listening back to an episode I recorded in 2021 about our non-negotiables. I was struck by how many threads were already there five years ago, and by how they’ve matured and softened since. In this episode I wonder about what happens when certainty becomes a cage, why I think non-negotiables can be both an anchor and a limit, and how a week of so much happening in the wider world led me somewhere I hadn’t expected: to hope.\nI close with a poem from My Darling Girl.\nThis is the last episode of season 21. Thank you, as always, for being here. The new season begins in a few weeks.\nField Note: how our non-negotiables shift \nCircle - I’ve shared an invitation to reflect on how your own non-negotiables have changed.
