Joe GaragiolaElena had always felt like the center of her own world - who doesn't? The world arranged itself around her like petals around the stem of a flower.

He who grasps the pivot is at the still-point from which all movements and oppositions can be seen in their right relationship... Abandoning all thought of imposing a limit or taking sides, he rests in direct intuition.
