A brief reflection is provided on three very different articles by Thibault, Bushfield, and Monod et al. which focus on moving from variable to application. The basic paradox that emerges in attempting to intervene with elders in terms of dedicated suffering and spiritual mapping is revealed. In an evidence-based practice environment that privileges measurement and pushes toward universalism, it is critically important to recognize the uniqueness of the individual. Balancing the objective with the subjective requires the interventionist/researcher to continually recognize paradox
