The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you get one more yard
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part -Tom Petty, song “The Waiting”
“Silence is God’s first language.” -St. John of the Cross
Do you have the patience to wait
till your mud settles and the water is clear?
Can you remain unmoving
till the right action arises by itself?
The Master doesn’t seek fulfillment.
Not seeking, not expecting,
she is present, and can welcome all things. -“Tao Te Ching” by Lao-Tzu (Stephen Mitchell translation)
Make friends with waiting and silence.
For if you can do so, these two friends will guide you. They will clarify and amplify your heart’s true desire. And lead you to the inner peace you so desperately seek.
