​opening/closing
"Perhaps its the word radical that needs rethinking. But what could we angle ourselves toward instead, or in addition? Openness? Is that good enough, strong enough? You're 'the only one who knows when you're using thing to protect yourself and keep your ego together and when you're opening and letting things fall apart, letting the world come as it is--working with it rather than struggling against it. You're the only one who knows.' And the thing is, even you don't always know"
