39. The Shoe Fits the Foot

A single image. The body is a measure. The shoe fits the foot. Go beyond that fit, and nothing stops you.

The body is the measure of the things that suit it, as the foot is the measure of the shoe.

If you stop there, you will keep the measure.

If you move beyond it, you must be carried forward, as down a cliff.

In the case of a shoe, once you pass its fit to the foot, it comes to be covered with gold, then dyed purple, then studded with jewels.

Once a thing has passed a proper measure, there is no end.

What this means. Enough is a size. Once you step past enough, there is no size that stops you. Know your size.
