Tiny improvements build up

Although ["make the better choice"] is useful in the moment, its best use is for incremental change. If my best choice used to be to yell or hit, and I yelled, then the next time I thought about it, hitting wasn't even going to begin to be one of my choices. Would I yell or wait? Or yell or speak quietly? Yell or leave the room? Maybe leave out the yelling, and choose between "speak quietly" or "breathe before speaking."

  1. In the tunnel, in the middle of the photo, is my little boy Marty, and his little girl. At the table, one of Kirby's little girls. In the reflection, the two women who brought those grandchildren forth.
