I've shared this with no less than ten people offline today. Three have responded with "I love you." Seems like a pretty good ratio.

This sentence has been caught in my teeth for days, chewy and true and hard to live up to— We're given so many chances to sell out [everything]. Good to remember it's not an imperative.
