Process

As far as I understand, a typical process is rot > second birth > shakedown. It seems that I went through a similar process in my teens: rot (profound isolation and nothing to hold onto) > transdual awakening/opening > reconfiguration (felt that I was taken apart and put together in a new way, aligned with the new way of being).

My second birth (if that is what it is), was a "soft landing"... No or little rot, no or little shakedown. I may have gone through much of the rot and shakedown already, although I know there are many more layers that needs to be aligned and worked through (and come to think of it, my time in Wisconsin may qualify as a rot).
