Anne Lamott speaks:
“I
have a lot of faith.
But
I am also afraid a lot, and have no real certainty about anything.
I
remembered something Father Tom had told me--that the opposite of
faith is not doubt, but certainty.
Certainty
is missing the point entirely.
Faith
includes noticing the mess, the emptiness and discomfort, and letting
it be there until some light returns.”

Lamott from Plan B: Further Thoughts on Faith
Of course my favorite book by Anne is "Bird by Bird" , a must read for every unhappy writer.
I appreciate that you stopped by,
