Asynchronous Hoops

So here I am. Sitting by the beach. Listening to steel pan music. And thinking about all that is happening and has happened.

It’s been a while. Lots of challenges. Another day for that story.

Currently thinking about the multiple changes that are occurring in my private circle, family circle, work circle, community circle, national circle and global circle. Sometimes it seems as though all the circles are spinning like hula hoops that are not in sync.

Then I remember how I handled the hula as a child.
Widen your stance. Make slow determined movements. Concentrate. Develop a rhythm with occasional short or long dips and elevations to keep things moving. And eventually things are working well.

Make no mistake.
Sometimes everything falls to the ground.
Just bend down, pick it up and try again.

Nodding my head to the music in the background. Tapping my feet.

The rhythm will return.
