“What will be the reward for all this discomfort?" I asked after a particularly bad night of loneliness and restlessness. "Can you live without knowing the answer to that question? Can you just walk through these steps and work without any promise of reward? Can you trust that more will be revealed? Can you take the risk of not knowing what your future will look like? Do you have the courage for that?”
