Orientation is about your current structural "here," not your future "there". You can be fully oriented to your immediate reality even while significant life questions remain unanswered. In this model, you close the "orientation arc" by deciding that your physical presence is the only answer needed for right now. This prevents the Threat system from staying active in a search for "certainty," allowing you to remain grounded despite the unknown.
When you stop the pursuit of answers, you close the "uncertainty loop" that drains your integration capacity. This creates a "structural pause" where your nervous system can finally return to baseline. Without the pressure to resolve every mystery, you can focus on the loops that can be finished, such as basic self-care or immediate tasks. This builds a foundation of safety, allowing deeper meaning to eventually settle on its own terms without being forced by the mind.
