Certainly, this was my experience. Have you ever thought that your parents in their concern that you be rooted focused only on the ants part of the Proverbs passage and neglected the dialectical, other admonition found there that one is to be free as a bird. The Bible is a dialectical, paradoxical book. Logically, it is not possible to have both roots and wings, it seems. Yet experientially, we come to learn that we need both.
History seems to be the story of stressing the one at the expense of the other to our sorrow.
We are to yield to the leadership of the Good Shepherd. We are to wear the yoke of submission and service. This is a tension with which we must live. I believe that I have witnessed some horses and some dogs that have successfully embarrassed domestication and freedom. I have known some Christians who have done this, too.
