From HAVE I TOLD YOU TODAY THAT I LOVE YOU
Learn to
trust the inner “timer” that will guide you through paths and transitions even
before you become aware of them.
Some things need time to gestate, to grow and mature before coming into
being; these may be ideas, plans, projects, or whatever. Pamper and nurture them. Do not give up
on something that is not as immediate as you think it should be. A more patient part of you may
recognize that the time and circumstances are not yet right. Worthwhile ideas and plans will not
abandon you. Those that do fade
away were not meant to be.
The same is true for the
doubts and questions that always seem to find their way into our minds,
sometimes in astounding abundance.
Rilke said it best when he wrote, “have patience with everything
unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they
were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for
the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able
to live them. And the point is, to
live everything. Live the question
now. Perhaps then, someday far in
the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into
the answer.” *
