As we leave the expansiveness of summer and settle into autumn's rhythms and routines, we may discover a desire or longing to integrate our fresh insights. ... All the spiritual traditions of the world acknowledge that wisdom comes from the accrued learnings of our experiences, and this includes those learnings we reap by following someone else's inspired path for a time. What is at the center of your life at this time? What is your central motivation now? Whenever we have the experience of being ourselves, or of loving what we are doing, we arrive at the center of what is important for us.
