HETERONYM 6: OBJECT
During the meeting, Dana placed a small glass object on the table—a souvenir from her travels. It caught the light as she explained her new proposal. One colleague began to object, arguing the timing wasn’t right, but Dana stayed calm. She pointed back to the shimmering object, saying every plan starts with something small but clear. The debate continued, but by the end, most agreed to test her idea. Dana smiled, knowing even a tiny spark can shift a room when handled with patience.
