Thank you, Candace!! What a lovely surprise to see my words in your gorgeous handwriting! It’s proof that even not knowing can be beautiful. I feel like we are holding hands as we take a big leap into the Great Unknown. Weeeeeee!
Lovely, your artful sharing of readers comments. It's not at all weak or shameful to admit not knowing something. I'll lend more credence to someone who's not afraid to say that vs. another's blustering, puffed up 'understanding' or command of an issue. It's true. There is just so much that I truly do not know!
Yup. I’m going through one of those times when I don’t have a clue. The only way to keep going is to get up, move out, and whatever the next step is, take it.
Keep moving and eventually things will make sense again. It’s the one thing I’ve learned in life.
I like how the quotes from others you turned into a poem filled with insight and meaning. It is like a found poetry lesson I do with my high school writing students. Thanks for sharing and keep it up.
The reminder to “take a breath and stop putting so much weight on our each and every move” is exactly what I needed to read right now! Thank you for this beautiful installment
Candace, I love the care and beauty in your work. This sent me back to the original piece, which I’d missed. Rilke’s quote is so wise, and how else are we to answer the deeper questions of life? Thank you
Brilliant! And I especially liked the first one, curiosity is the key, but the answers feel less and less important. Of course, this is followed by "I DON'T KNOW." Indeed, so much of what is happening everyday deserves this mantra.

A great post, I found myself thinking life is a journey we take without a map to guide us unless we trust in God to show us the way, which many do not
