Let it come at its own pace

Yes, I know.  But I'm sometimes impatient and I want to get things done and so I try to force things along. Once again I re-discover that things happen at their own rate, and attempting to force anything is just going to lead to problems.  After all, why should it go at your or my pace? That's the ego trying to order the universe around.

With my writing, too.  For a long while now I've been stuck, trying to pull some threads together.  And then, today, the sun broke through and I knew what I had to do. All that time I was afraid I was wasting time, all I was doing was stopping myself listening to the real message that wanted to get me to shut up for long enough so it could make itself heard.

Thank goodness it did.
