The ship travels dangerously at night.

Showing the outside and not the inside is self-deceiving, my dear.

Very often when you just can't decide between two or more options... it's because the answer that would most give you peace, is actually, "None of the above."

But not always.

Claim the fact you are choosing where and where not to put your energy, and make choices, darlings, which bridge inner and outer.

The house burns while the neighbors watch.

Whenever bumped off course, darlings, it's often wise to pause and ascertain whether or not you've really been dealt a setback, or if it was in fact a little nudge from 'the Universe' designed to subtly prepare you for something even better.

Because I'm sure you'll see, if you want to, it was the latter.

We seldom choose when something is to go, my dears, but we can most certainly choose how we give it up.

And just for you, sweetie:

Apologize to an old soul, and your gesture will be honored.

Apologize to a young soul and matters may become extremely complicated.

Apologize anyway.

Happily, hanging around afterwards is always purely optional!
