Ability to Fluctuate

"Wholeness comes when you can stand in the storm of contradiction,

refusing to collapse into comfort or uncertainty. The self is found

and reborn where opposites meet."

j. Mike Fields

There was a time we were told to make something of ourselves. This tended to indicate one solitary choice. We were to make a commitment and stay the course. Changing career paths was viewed as a weakness. There was zero room for flexibility. The truth of course is that we were never meant to be just one permanent thing.

We have our masculine side which pushes us forward as a warrior to get things done. Then there is the feminine side that is soft and creative. We are not one or the other, but rather a flexible blend between the two. Mastering this ability to fluctuate, we can face either chaos or comfort without the loss of self. 

We may not have control over how our life unfolds, but we can make the best choice for how we want to react. It is a matter of using our learned skills and knowledge appropriately, when faced with opposition. The rub between unevenness can shave bias from our minds and contribute to our sense of being whole.
