I wrote
about the swiftness of change earlier. What I forgot (actually, I didn’t, I
just thought I could get another post out of it) was that the change didn’t
just happen on one front. I put multiple irons in the fire, preparing each one
of them to forge into something useful. And when change came, it was with
multiple irons.
I found
myself spreading out, but not in a way that made me feel like I was spread too
thin, more like I could finally stretch out and fully extend my reach. It’s
good to take these irons and hammer away at them, a few strokes each before
returning it to the fire. The trick, obviously, is not to let one stay too long
in either place or the metal will be ruined.
Maybe when
I can finally determine which iron is the real me I’ll make sure it gets most
of my attention.
