Stayed Open Without an Answer

Dear Delyara, I’m starting to understand that not all unanswered things are punishments. Some are just unanswered for now. And the real work is not forcing meaning, but staying open enough that uncertainty does not harden me into bitterness or panic while life takes its time. This week, I did that better. I didn’t demand a sign. Didn’t push the question until it became a private fight between me and reality. I just let the not-knowing exist and tried to stay honest inside it. That felt like spiritual growth in a very adult way. Not dramatic. Not triumphant. Just steadier.
