People are often like swans. Regal, calm, proud, head up, confidently swimming along. Effortlessly gliding through the water.

At least that is what we see.

What we don’t see are the feet furiously paddling below the surface, every muscle twitching providing balance.

But we won’t talk about the latter unless trust is presence. Otherwise we lash out hissing when another gets too close.
