Excellent way to put it, Wendy! Thanks for your insight. I'll keep that in
mind as encounter the bats 'cause I haven't figured out those buzzards
yet...

I think the bats are the ones I hold in my heart most as I hold space and
keep faith in and for them. If I have opened enough space and have held
it
strongly enough (and managed to not "helpfully" put them back on level
ground :)), the bats will encounter that slight elevation and leap into
flight. Finding, perhaps for the first time, the nimbleness and grace of
their own true natures.
Cheers,
Wendy
