That Open Space
Monday, November 9, 2009 at 11:31PM 
Hope inspires action, yet requires great patience and a certain amount of open space to help prepare you for what is to come when it decides to arrive. I've been thinking about that open space... the wait... and its capacity to lift or level you. I think about people like Odette hoping to be reunited with her children; people like Mama Lucy hoping to expand her school to make room for more students; people like Mupenzi hoping to find true love again. People like that don't give up. They take action, yet they know how to wait patiently in that open space.

I've heard that "the space between" is the lesson, the anticipation that feeds hope and faith.
Yes, MT, I think so. Thank you.
