The hardest times have been when it looks as though nothing is happening, or, worse, when it looks as though something is definitely wrong in my life. "It's not working," I say to myself...I have to keep reminding myself that nothing is wasted time. I may not understand what is happening, but I can begin to appreciate that the impasse is another marker on the way.
