Strange Guests

It's easy to get to a place where you are waiting to act on circumstances that you have conceived as essential.

In the meantime, things are happening around you. Opportunities and possibilities that don't fit at all with your conception of what they should be before you act.

But these scraggly, badly-dressed visitors dumped at your doorstep may turn out to be the most valuable messengers of new directions and new possibilities.

Above all, you cannot begin with anything except what is actually there.

That is the basis for acting, always bearing in mind what your larger goal is.

If you let go of what must be there in order to move forward, you start seeing with a much broader view that allows you to take the next steps.
