The reason you are the center of your reality is because everyone is the center of theirs. Everyone is a lone cloud at the center of their empty sky.

Your takeaway should be to control your cloud, get rid of most winds but allow yourself to be guided by the ones that want to help. Because in the end the path of a cloud is decided before it even begins its journey. It only awaits to experience its fate.
