It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work

I really like this quote:


It may be that when we no longer know what to do
we have come to our real work,
and that when we no longer know which way to go
we have come to our real journey.
The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
The impeded stream is the one that sings.

The problem is that those that do not know what they are doing are much more likely to screw it up.  But I agree with the concept of waking up to realize we do not know much about anything is the first step of discovery.
