“One day I just stopped telling myself all the things I’d been telling myself and I stopped needing to know all the things I’d been needing to know, and I just actually started paying attention to things as they seemed to be in their own voices.
And you know to begin with everything went completely dark and everything seemed to disappear and I was in a very narrow place, and in that narrow place I found myself on solid ground, and from that narrow place I could take a step into something I could actually call my own life.”
David Whyte paraphrasing Dante, “Midlife and the Great Unknown”
