position

a position is more than thought; it is orientation. it signifies a stance, a direction, and a moral footing. to take a position is to declare not only what one thinks, but also what one stands upon and for. it is both stability and purpose, both ground and bearing.

yet position without consideration becomes mere stubbornness, while consideration without position dissolves into paralysis. the art lies in finding the moment when reflection crystallizes into conviction, when understanding transforms into commitment.
