Chapter 9 - Gravity

In its most fundamental sense, is the quiet pulling power that any mass exerts on every other mass in the universe.

We each possess our own physical gravitational field, yet it is immediately and irrevocably overpowered by the immense scale of celestial bodies—by the massive rock beneath our feet, the moon pulling at our tides, and the stars holding us in orbit.

However, gravity extends beyond the language of physics.

When we speak of the "gravity of a situation" or the "magnetic attraction of a person," we are describing the force exerted by a nonphysical mass.

Ideas, presence, purpose, and emotion carry a density of their own, creating an invisible force field that draws people in, shifts their trajectory, or anchors them in place.

While we cannot alter the physics of our planet, personal gravity is something we can control.

We cultivate it through our depth of character, our conviction, and the weight of our choices.

You may be physically bound to the earth by its mass, but the pull you exert on the world around you is entirely up to you.
