In the State of I Don’t Know

According to Jessica Lanyadoo of TheHoodwitch.com, “It’s OK to be imperfect, to not know what comes next, and to have mixed feelings about it. Don’t be so quick to find the answer that you rush past the process.”

For now, in good faith, I am accepting things as they are in the present moment and journeying through the process.
