No complaints. No dilly dallying. Just business.

Things never work out exactly as planned. But the adage failing to plan is planning to fail is equally true.

Playing it by ear.

Doing what feels right when the moment arises.

This is but one part of Uketamo. Accepting the situation for what it is, and moving on either way;

Playing it by ear, as they say.
