It is extremely understandable if we want the answer now, ideally right now. Or in the next couple of hours at least. The answer to what we should be doing, who we should be with, how we should settle the argument or where and how we should live.
We have – goodness knows – been waiting long enough and our patience is at an end.
We need, in spite or because of the intensity of our hope for results, to allow ourselves moments of leeway to get very lost, not to know for a long time, to make a substantial mess of things.
To have any chance of one day reaching something substantial, we may need first to give up all hope that we will ever in fact do so.
