"Wade While You Wait" (涉水等待)

Liu Dao

I’ll add the sweetest layers of my own and thank you very much… I suggest you do the same. Occasionally I’ll pop across something quite unfinished as I see it and, if this is the case, I’ll try my best to make it so. When you see a “whole” something you’re just glimpsing a transient blob version of a series of layers masterfully (or sometimes certainly not) splattered together. This is where you ought to interject if you know what’s good for you and others. Your best option in my opinion is to add the most minimal contribution that achieves the most maximum alteration of the thing. Do you know what I mean? Maybe not. And, if this is the case, it could very well be because you (or some stranger) has yet to add that last finishing touch to your ‘you-ness’. To the unfinished monument of you. That tiny layer to make ‘things’ into ‘a thing’. And a thing well worth stopping to see at that.
