When the systems we trusted begin to unravel, the real work is learning how to stand steady in the space between what is ending and what is being born.
Sometimes I feel heavy from holding space for change, then I remember that is what anchors are supposed to be. Heavy so they can hold the ground while the waves pull hard against them. Then I smile and force a laugh which then becomes a true laugh and all is well again.
That’s a beautiful way to describe it. Anchors don’t float above the water—they hold steady inside the weight of it. Thank you for sharing that image.
Also why it is so important for us to ground (anchor) every morning!!
It absolutely is!
