Oscillating from one position to another.
In life, one emotion to another, one role to another.
Nothing needs to be rigid.
You take a step forward, then you take a step back.
Being a pendulum is okay, we need not be stable at one point.
The stability of a pendulum is in it's constant to and fro motion.
But it does not hide it's motion from us, transparent.
We all take different roles at different times, have different personalities.
The key is to not be motionless, or you're as good as dead.
It is okay.
