An objection is resistance.
It stops me.
It argues with uncertainty.
It avoids answering why.
When I object,
I dress up my hesitation as logic.
I pretend it’s reason.
It’s really fear.
An objective is different.
An objective is purpose.
It pulls me forward.
It requires I answer why.
An objection pushes against.
The trouble comes when I confuse the two.
When I call my avoidance an objection.
When I mistake my resistance for clarity.
The paradox is this:
An objection avoids uncertainty.
An objective makes it useful.
