Inheritance

So you must not be frightened if a sadness rises up before you, larger than any you have ever known, if a restiveness, like light and cloud shadow passes over your hands and over all that you do. You must think that something is happening with you, that life has not forgotten you, that it holds you in its hand; it will not let you fall... Believe in a love that is being stored for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far -  as you wish without having to step outside it.
