I really like the image of a 4-legged animal placing a paw on another level and realizing it feels good but must bring the other paws over to be balanced. That’s a really good analogy.

Sounds like you’re contemplating some big things. Like you said, the voice must be exhausted. Give it props and tell it to go to bed or better yet, take a vacation. You’ve got this.

Juliaaaaa I just came here from FO discord and read this beautiful piece and it made me feel so seen. I could say a lot of the same things you wrote here about how I used to think of life as something to be strategized and carried out (but my brain doesn’t work like that, I’m also very process-oriented), that I want to be soft and live with more grace for myself. Happy to have connected, this community is just so nourishing. 💛
