“Living is a form of not being sure, not
knowing what next or how. The moment you know how, you begin to die a little.
The artist never entirely knows. We guess. We may be wrong, but we take leap
after leap in the dark.”
–Agnes de Mille
And so I leap.
This will be a short post as I am in the midst of a move back East. Not sure
what the future holds exactly, but I’m facing it with as much courage as I can
muster in the effort to improve my economic situation. Living in one of the
most beautiful, if expensive, cities in Canada comes with a price tag that is
just a little too high for me and having other options, I’m embracing, once again, the
opportunity to enjoy the beauty and freedom of the East.
I love the quote
above and find it meaningful, particularly now, as I’m embarking on this
exercise which has an uncertain outcome. I live with the feeling that, on one
level, I really have no idea what I’m doing and yet, on another, confident that
it will lead in a productive and happy direction. So, there it is.
May we all be
inspired to bravely face whatever challenges populate our life, uncertain
outcomes and all, with as much love, intelligence, patience and integrity as we
are capable of in this moment.
Much love to
all.
