We cannot fly without a ground to take off and so first we have to
accept and sink in ‘our ground’ no matter what it feels like.
“Carved on the temple [at Delphi] were the exhortations "Know
yourself" and "Nothing too much," mottoes with a similar
meaning: You are only human, so don't try more than you are able (or you will
pay the price). A recurring theme in Greek myth is the man or woman who loses
sight of human limitations and acts arrogantly and with violence, as if
immortal. And pays a terrible price.”
