Learning About Invitations
Invitations to trail-off may take different shapes and forms. They can look like giving someone a ride, playing bingo or staying around to drink a cup of coffee.
It is up to you to decide whether you want to accept these invitations or not.

Being receptive and open to such invitations is also the most effective way in this Knowledge-Land-Scape to attune to their corresponding insights.
