Hi there,
I have had the idea for a long time, that you don't pursue something in earnest, unless you have been considered "worthy" of the thing you are trying to pursue. The reason is, that you may think you are doing a great thing, when you haven't even asked if its your place to do anything. But now I have had another thought and it is starting to complete a picture: what if you didn't move on from one thing to another, until you had permission to leave something in the first place? Would you stick with what you had for longer?
The point is, that we can all give up, we can all change to something new, but what if the thing we started with, is the thing that needs the most attention? What if the meaning of the doing of the thing, meant more than the attention to the thing for its own sake? Or at least not without the doing of the thing?
Where have you persisted? That you could keep persisting?
Thoughts?
