While the answer is still unknown

Ambition · Little Light original

There are stretches of effort when the outcome stays out of sight. The application is with someone else. The proposal is being considered. The project has gone into the world, and you cannot yet tell whether it will find the people you hoped it would reach. Try to keep some of your life outside that waiting. Do the work that is still yours to do. Make a plan for more than one answer. Spend time with people who do not need an update before they can enjoy your company. Let an ordinary evening be worth having while the important thing remains unresolved. Hope does not require you to stare at the door all day. You can want an answer deeply and still give your attention to the life around you. Whatever arrives next, you deserve to have lived through this part as a person, with more than one reason to look forward.
