Searching for the Original Thought
Overthinking can become an investigation, pulling attention back through every thought in search of the first domino. Here, the backward reach itself becomes visible: the hope that a perfect origin would finally let the mind rest. The question can stay unanswered while the body keeps breathing and the search begins to loosen.

Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
