Most systems don't break in one loud moment.
They drift quietly, invisibly, until what once made sense no longer does.
If you've ever looked at old code and thought, "What were we trying to do here?"
This one's for you.
In today's reflection, I explore what truly keeps systems stable.
Not rigid rules. Not perfect planning.
But the quiet habit of returning before it's too late.
Not perfection. Return.
Not control. Care.
Why it matters:
Stability isn't a fixed state.
It's a rhythm kept by those who care enough to come back.
