I'm wondering...about how much we make happen vs how much we let happen. How much do we create for ourselves? How much of what happens is a function of us learning how to join what is already happening?
The reality is that it is likely both, especially at different times in our lives. But, there are times when it feels more like either or. In other words, one OR the other — like sometimes we need to make a choice.
Crisis' seems to leverage our choice-making — difficult as they are, they also force an issue.
But, outside of crisis, choosing can feel even more challenging, especially as we get older and our awareness of implications seems higher.
So the question becomes (at least for me), what is the degree of our own agency?
