"Tie your shoes as perfectly as you can."! I don't know why this hit me like a big insight. Do little things with great love? Don't know what that looks like, can't do it. Wash the dishes because I love the person who will use them next? Also seems impossible (what does that look like? what if halfway through I am just mad at myself that I broke a glass?). Tie my shoes as perfectly as I can? Means the same thing as these other things, probably, but now it seems like it can be done because there is only one thing to do and no pesky introspection riding in the sidecar.
