For much of my wandering through the kingdoms, I found myself watching rather than reacting; listening to conversations, studying the patterns of wind across the river, or noticing how one person's anger or feng shui could ripple through a room like Shar qi cutting through stillness. Over time, I realized that I was most at peace not by choosing sides, but by keeping my center steady and quiet. The kingdom can sometimes be loud: conflict, ambition, pride, fear. But the neutral path feels like a returning home, a way to understand movement without being swallowed by it. When I observe before acting, and when I seek balance rather than victory, I feel at peace. Choosing a neutral life was not a single moment but a slow shift; an understanding that extremes tug the spirit too violently. By walking as an observer, I can understand others more deeply without losing myself in their storms. As I've just became a TiaoLi Initiate, balance has allowed me to see patterns beneath chaos, the way Shar and Sheng qi weave through people, places, and decisions. I hope to continue learning the layers of neutrality. My wish is not to stand above others, but to remain centered enough to see clearly, and act gently. I seek to walk the balanced, untainted path not for prestige, but because my spirit feels most aligned when I choose harmony over extremes. Splurge Goldsworth | |
