Sometimes massive change can happen overnight. Welcome or otherwise, the landscape can shift in the blink of an eye.

But more often, change is slow. A bit of pressure here. A firm movement there. A new, sustained practice. And slowly … gradually … change happens.

Which is to say we work more often with chisels and mallets than with bulldozers and blasting caps.

There’s the work, and there’s the work of being patient with our work.

Bit by bit. Little by little.

And we move mountains.
