These days, we know A LOT of people who are in the middle of a seachange, ourselves included: NOT yet knowing what exactly we’re in the process of creating, or where we’ll end up. So stumbling on this quote by T.S. Eliot was heartening and affirming. It’s just THE DEAL: in creating something new, we can’t control the process, and need to endure the discomfort of not having the answer, yet...and faith that it will come.
