My own take is that the danger zones are the extremes. If we think we are in control, we are in for a surprise when life goes a different way than we were planning. But it is awfully hard to function in complete chaos. I worked with a hospice patient once who told me that, when he looked back at his life, seemingly random things seemed to be part of an unfolding pattern. There are times when we may not be able to see two feet in front of us, but I think it still helps if we try to find our center and stay balanced.
