Doubt often means don’t—don’t move, don’t answer, don’t rush forward. When I’m mired in confusion about what the next step should be, when I’m asked to do something for which I feel little enthusiasm, that’s my sign to just stop—to get still until my instincts give me the go-ahead. When the spirit compels me toward the best path to take it never leaves me with “Maybe,” "Should I?” or even “Perhaps.” I always know for sure when it’s telling me to proceed because everything inside of me raises up to reverberate “Yes!”"with stammering lips and insufficient sound, I strive and struggle to deliver right the music of my nature..." -Elzibeth Barrett Browning
