You had conflicting feelings, then. There is still some emotional charge. People, however, will accept whatever actions you consider natural and equitable. They will accept your reasons, which can be stated clearly so that they do not feel personally rejected.

In your position, then, Friday night could be a time when your friends know you are available, free, and looking forward to sociability. You would be if the rest of the week were cleared—and it would be cleared if you realized that what was involved was simply a matter of your own quite natural working habits and convenience, and made it clear that people were welcome at another time.

If you arrange for your own work times, and those times are adequate, you will have peace of mind. Then your natural desire also to see other people will propel you, again quite naturally, to make suitable arrangements that will then be most fruitful.

Ruburt’s room is highly important for many reasons in your home, and he is moving about more naturally.

You each saw a program about animal motion. The action of the eyes is intimately connected with the speed and mobility of the body—intimately connected, for that matter, with all organs. Naturally, then, Ruburt’s eyes are changing. A rather usual error would be to treat the eyes through different glasses, thereby locking them into a transitory phase. You should have received enough evidence, and fine evidence thus far, to show you that there is nothing intrinsically wrong with Ruburt’s eyes, per se. As he changes his motions they will acclimate. The unevenness of vision is the result of the entire body changes, shiftings of jaw pressure, release of ligaments, and an entire body reorientation.

Now driving, riding, is beneficial, for it artificially allows the eyes horizons of distance, and large areas of focus. He is not moving that fast bodily, but his eyes are newly accustomed to faster motion. Earlier, the eyes’ motion fit the bodily stance. He only looked downward when he walked. When he sat, he moved his entire head. The eyes, therefore, have become unsynchronized in that regard, and are learning more natural motion. He was not aware of the difference before.

I do not want to overemphasize such processes of the past, however, but only what is being done now as the healing processes continue. As things stand, I believe he is headed for some vital periods of relaxation. He should be able to copy an hour or so a day, but do not push that issue. It will follow naturally.

You could not settle for less. The same applies to Ruburt and his writing, and those are the challenges you have undertaken. By their nature they do not give you niches in which you can rest. You are creating an art that exists now, though you cannot see it, but only sense it at times.
