Chant for the Room Between
Parent: Chants
When listening has made the difference clearer.
The Chant
Your words, not my echo.
Our difference, left clear.
No agreement demanded.
No dignity withdrawn.
The Practice
Use before replying to a position you oppose. Check that you can describe it without replacing it with an easier argument. It does not ask for agreement, trust, or another conversation. Only that the difference stay accurate, and any refusal stay free of contempt.
