Meaning

This reads as a plea for readers to handle advice with care instead of obedience. It points to language as something to test, absorb, and keep only if it feeds the inner life. It lands when someone is tempted to treat a writer’s certainty as law, and instead needs permission to take what helps and leave the rest.
