The next step

"Of all the pitfalls in our paths and the tremendous delays
and wanderings off the track I want to say that they are not what they seem to be.
I want to say that all that seems like fantastic mistakes are not mistakes
 all that seems like error is not error; and it all has to be done.
That which seems like a false step is the next step."
~Agnes Martin, Writings
