Act of turning on one foot ( military )  The  officer  or  soldier  who simply turns in his place while the  company  or  line moves around him in  wheeling .   I’m pivoting. Changing direction in a short period and in quick succession, all of my plans and goals will move around me.    In the army if we turned left, we’d call it a left wheel and pivot on that foot. The inside soldier would be the pivot and all others would follow his or her lead.    The plans are changing and the landscape is now different. It’s time to pivot.    What does that look like?  I guess we will just wait and see...but it will be interesting, to say the least.  Pivot. It’s been on my mind all day.

...I’ll be better. Tomorrow I’ll do the things and say the words and motivate myself to try and roll on...   But that’s for tomorrow.  Today I am sad. I will be sad tomorrow but maybe a little less, maybe I’ll be busier and occupy the long and quiet hours with self development and jumping into the hobbies that usually make me happy...   For now, Sting and the Police say it better than I ever could.. King Of Pain - The Police  ...There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall, that's my soul up there There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall, that's my soul up there There's a blue whale beached by a springtide's ebb, that's my soul up there There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web, that's my soul up there I have stood here before inside the pouring rain With the world turning circles running 'round my brain I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign But it's my destiny to be the king of pain There's a...
