I went for 7 years in the 90s with out one new plateau or even a CLUE to where my path should lead....as if life had stopped talking to me and giving me hints...
I felt a little abandoned
then 911 happened and WOW...my mind was bombarded by it all again and I found my path again...
has anyone else observed this phenomenon or is it just me?
That's a fairly close parallel to my own experience, only my big hiatus was the 80s.
