“I am already given to the power that rules my fate.

“I am already given to the power that rules my fate.
And I cling to nothing, so I will have nothing to defend.
I have no thoughts, so I will see.
I fear nothing, so I will remember myself.
Detached and at ease, I will dart past the Eagle to be free.”

he's not talking there about a surface choice, and outer choice. This type of choice is made deep inside, and some people never know the choice has been made for a long time.

But we can go down in ceremony, and recommit - make the choice all over again ... it helps to bring the choice up to the surface.

Yes, I did a ceremony agreement with Spirit at the age of 17, but the choice was indeed made long before. But Carlos and Don Juan did put the right word to it to me 7 years later. The one choice.

Your words, m, touch a feeling in me that has been arising, but I wasn't sure of what it was and is until maybe right now.  Just this moment, like a recommitment needed which is humbling me, something making me more and more need to bring it to the surface, whatever it is.  I have dealt with it a couple of times in some things I have posted here but these sensings have not congealed for me yet.  I am trying to put into words here something which I cannot now do.  I have to go deeper.  I never experienced any kind of mid-life crisis, as I hear guys do often when they're in their 40's or something.  Guess I've been to busy or too focused to let some things enter me or rise up in me, I dunno.  Something maybe I have been masking.  Maybe it's just a self-doubt which I have never had before, I dunno. 

There is "a vibration in my force", though, and I'm not sure how to interpret it.
