Wouldn't it be nice to be able to draw on sources that help anchor us to who we really are. By identifying a handful of rules in each of the dimensions that affect us the most, we might be better able to find ourselves. Not necessarily rules made by someone else, but necessarily those which we can identify with. It might start by considering the dimensions which matter the most. Then, by trial and error, find or develop the rules in each dimension which guide us gently inwards. It could begin with just one set of one, move on to two sets of two, then three sets of threes, or more. Or just the reverse. Be secure in the knowledge that that no matter what other things happen, or what fierce winds might swirl around us, we can continue to chart our course to some pretty joyful places within us.

Three sets of threes
Our lives have different dimensions - the professional, the personal, the social, the spiritual, ..., the earthy, the divine. Dealing with the ups and downs of the times is far from easy. Mysteriously and hearteningly many others too face the same struggles and joys.
