Our will operates in spite of our indulgence. For example, your will is already opening your gap, little by little." "What gap are you talking about?" "There is a gap in us; like the soft spot on the head of a child which closes with age, this gap opens as one develops one's will.
The passage highlights the concept of willpower and its significance in personal development. It suggests that despite our indulgences and distractions, our will can still operate and influence our growth. This idea draws a parallel between the gradual opening of our will and a physical gap present in infants that gradually closes as they mature.
The "gap" referenced symbolizes the potential and capacity within us that expands as we actively cultivate our will. As individuals strengthen their willpower, they open themselves up to greater possibilities and understandings, akin to how a child's soft spot eventually becomes a solid part of their skull. This process of developing one's will is essential for personal evolution.
