The most productive and dynamic life is always on the edge.
If you are too far from the safety of established “civilization” you are a pioneer and in dangerous territory. The farther out you go, the slimmer your chances of survival.
If you are well entrenched in the “safety” of your civilization, never pushing an edge, you become just part of the machinery of civilization; the pavement that supports those who are on the edge.

Some days it appears, or feels, as though your puzzle pieces are more towards the edge, and then as your awareness grows, you see that you are actually surrounded by other's pieces, never truly near any edge. There is no edge. It only feels that way. We are always surrounded by others, but never in the center.
As with everything else, the edge is defined by local perceptions.
