- Before a working session, where the words fit
Let the work begin where it actually is,
not where the plan says it should be by now.
Let us build for the tired person using this at the end of a long day.
Let us leave it legible for whoever comes after,
who will not have us to ask.
Let us fix one thing we did not break.
Let us stop before we are ruined,
since nothing here is worth that.

Read alone or together without requiring a response. This is an orientation, not a substitute for a safety procedure or an assignment to repair something outside your competence. The last lines refuse exhaustion as a measure of spiritual seriousness.
