In the London Tube this is the most oft heard phrase. It warns the novice to take caution entering and exiting the train. This is great advice. There is no more difficult place than that which lies in between two destinations, the transition. Whether this is between cultures, jobs, schools, beliefs, or train and platform. The instability that awaits at the gaps of change can and will trip you up. You will feel it in your gut and it can be paralyzing lest you know it is there. In transition there is a moment of uncertainty, a place of instability. I am there!
To strengthen my resolve and to understand the nature of transition, it is important to recognize that the other side is there. The beckoning of stability is just a gap away, and all I need do is continue to cross … so Please, mind the gap and you won’t get caught in between.
You seem to always land on two feet; so, no worries, Baby.
