Sometimes it is hard to express a belief or thought because it has not been fully developed within yourself... The problem is that sometimes you don't even care about developing it for your own sake... you are comfortable to have half thoughts, half feelings and half beliefs.
I often find that leaving some thoughts, feelings, and beliefs undeveloped "engenders the susceptibilities of the higher intelligence".
ReplyDelete"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 questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future,you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer."
