Roll along

Neil Young:
I think my greatest strength is the ability to let myself be washed along on the top of the water. Just absolutely no control over my destination. That’s my biggest strength. There is no other strength than that. Just being able to roll along.

The Waking

This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.

--Theodore Roethke
