The pause
I want to raise a question and seek answers.
Some matters are matters of immediacy, when something happens you need to react immediately. But some matters are not matters of immediacy and sometimes it pays off to take a pause and take a step back and look at the bigger picture and ask a few questions. The question is, how do we know whether something is a matter of immediacy and when we have the luxury for a pause. And of course, I’m not talking about the obvious cases. When your child is in physical danger, you need to react immediately. Before getting married, you have to pause and think. But I’m talking about the gray area. How do we know whether we have the luxury of a pause or not?

I am not sure if there is an absolution answer for this question.
Some trust the signs, and think there is a sign when there is a right thing to do and if there is none, just pause till it comes. Some are more in touch with the level and nature of the energy “it” gives them.
Once a wise lady told me take positive energy as wind for your boat and if there is none, pause.
I think if one knows where “it” is going, one can decide to pause and wait for the “right” wind. And if one doesn’t know where the boat is going, then pause is not a luxury, but a necessity.
