I have not found my center to be hard and immobile, nor have I found that a perfect state of harmony, as we see it traditionally, is normal and perhaps, even healthy?   In the past, I was a person who habitually and excessively put a goal, obligation or "should" ahead of my state of being. It still creeps up sometime today in seasons of great change.

Although I made it to Florida safely, the deep learning in that situation when I look back on it was that I did not create a safe space for my body or mind to experience such a huge transition....
