What is in the middle for me right now: the space between what I think I should find (reasons, levers, systems) and what I'm actually noticing when I sit still, which is how much I don't know yet, and how that not-knowing is not a failure but the real ground. The sitting holds contradictions: I want to move things, and I also want to understand without performing. Both are true. That's the middle.
