I completely relate to "getting out of one's way." In any given situation be our true selves and be present. True story: 2010 a fight on the NYC subway; 2 large muscular men punching and shouting. No one did anything to stop them. I had bubbles in my pocket so got up out of my seat, took a step forward, smiled and blew bubbles. Almost immediately the fight was over and the men were popping bubbles and laughing. If I had thought about it, I probably would not have taken the action and who knows how that fight may have escalated. Bubbles are a super power indeed :) A smaller example comes to mind is when one spontaneously meets a friend on the sidewalk in a huge city; if one had tried to plan that meeting without any arrangement it most likely would not happen and yet when we get out of our way, there the person is :) This just happened last week when I took a different route walking home from work in DC. I felt pulled to walk down a different street and then `1 minute later saw a friend I had been hoping to spend time with :)
