When you have a mess in your hands,
calm and patience
are the first requirements.
Identifying the knots and how
they have become entangled
is the next step.
Loosening each knot and avoiding
stretching them even more,
is indispensable.
Every undon knot
releases joy.
There is no other way.
There are no shortcuts.
You can’t cut anything,
because later you’ll need
the whole rope.
If we feel that
our life is a mess,
we already know
what we have to do.
