Enjoying the Questions As Much As the Answers.....

That is advice given from the poet Rainer Maria Rilke from a book given to me by one of my beloved directors. Its called "Letters to a Young Poet." I love this book!

Lately I'm trying to really listen to that. My whole world is changing, mostly because of the work I'm doing in The Artist's Way. My friendships are changing, my environments I put myself in are changing, my outlook about my work and how I go about it are changing, and where I place my time too.

Hell, I just moved, so even my physical living situation has changed. I know, I really trust, that there is a deep need within me for all this change. I've been really out of sorts at times. Really scared and confused. I know its because I am letting go of the old and awaiting the new.

So, instead of racing toward an answer, something to firmly grasp onto - I am doing my best to "enjoy the questions."

Damn, its unsettling --
