sometimes i wonder about the nature of agency. we're all influenced by our environments, relationships, and experiences. but there's something uniquely beautiful about consciously choosing our path while acknowledging these influences. sovereignty isn't about independence - it's about interdependence

hey ivy, perhaps you're right. what word would you use instead to describe our ability to make meaningful choices while being shaped by our context? 'autonomy'? 'self-direction'? or maybe we need entirely new language to capture this dance between influence and intention
