I think of frontiers as the extreme limit of understanding or achievement in a particular area and boundaries as the limit of a subject or sphere of activity.

As you point out, a frontier is an invitation into infinite potential. Exploring a boundary assumes a limitation.

Our capacity to imagine, desire, and create a new, seemingly impossible future by “name” feels very much like a Star Trek “Final Frontier” attitude—or maybe a Captain Jack sparrow saying, “Bring me that Horizon.”

The commentary is very helpful this week. In particular, the explanation of veiled wisdom. So elusive at times, yet so duh!

Because they are not being great
they can become great. ”

Willfull forcing vs. arising through surrender. One constricted and inflexible the other open and “immovable”. How apropos.

Deeply struck by the juxtaposition between the resonance of immovability and the intense dissonance of “You die if you are sealed into the box”. Remembering to stop and take time to grieve. A return to harmony the greatest healing. Deep gratitude. 🙏
