When you are pulled in two directions, what do you do?  You remain in the center.  Centered.  It is the neutral position.  The soul remains always in the center, in the neutral position, taking no sides, simply receiving guidance and passing it along to your human awareness.  The more you allow yourself to be pulled this way and that, the more off-balance you become, and then you no longer hear the whisperings of Spirit, gently guiding you.  Human life is about the choices you make from one now-moment to the next, and choices require you to move from center, but only by returning there between each decision do you ensure that you make the highest possible choices.
