An example of Aenaon's stage developmentally:

He wants to go downstairs to the basement to do laundry (he initiates activity and idea). He knows Adara can't go, but she is fussing at the top of the stairs, so he goes to get her a toy to play with/distract her with. It works like a charm. But in the process, he gets caught up in the distraction, too, and starts dancing around to the music he played to distract Adara. It's only when I begin to close the door that he realizes he's lost sight of his original mission, and leaps toward the basement with the entirity of his desirous self. And his self is nothing if not desirous. There are so many wishes and desires that drive his being. It is truly amazing. And patience? What's that? One has to wait for things? Impossible!!
