Sometimes we have to run out of ideas before we can open to any new ones. The reason we can’t see any further is because our ideas are limited by the past, by past experiences, by what life has been like before. Our future does not have to be limited by our past. Life knows that. Now we can learn it too. We’re not at a dead end. We’ve reached a new beginning.
