Truth

Truth: meaning

A beginning becomes useful through a small first action. Before expanding the plan, distinguish available means from those still needed. Swords concerns ideas, boundaries and communicating decisions. Separate observation from judgement, listen to the response and name disagreement precisely; a clear statement may also need tact.
