there is for Norah not too much but too little; a gaping absence, a near-starvation. There is a bounteous feast going on, with music and richness and arabesques of language, but she has not been invited.
“Maybe you feel deep within you that you aren't where you are supposed to be right now, but maybe you actually are. Maybe you are being held in this place so that you can grow and heal before you go somewhere else. Maybe you are being protected.
Maybe you are being given a rare opportunity to focus on yourself and no one else for a while. It might feel uncomfortable and lonely, but maybe these feelings aren't negative. Maybe it is in these moments you discover yourself in a way that helps you change for the better. Maybe you will carry the lesson you learn now with you forever. You see, it is in the seasons that are the most uncomfortable that we become most comfortable with ourselves. I hope you lean into these moments with surrender. Surrender to the journey your soul is on. You are always being guided to where where you belong. Even if you don't feel like you belong where you are right now, you won't stay in this place forever. Before you know it, the dreams you are dreaming of now will be your reality when they are supposed to be. Trust.”
