Doubt is an unavoidable companion of spiritual seeking. ~ Courage to Change, page 69
Doubt is a pain too lonely to know
that faith is his twin brother
the Lebanese poet said.
Doubt is pain of insecurity,
of uncertainty, of confusion.
Doubt is a mirror showing my baseness,
my selfishness, my need for control,
my conviction of my own inability.
Doubt wants to recall the comfort of addiction,
the escape of trivial, the agony of self-pity.
Doubt is a curse I carry, but one I can carry
and ride on to courage, to serenity,
to recovery.
