When you put a fishing line in the water, you do so with the anticipation that there are fish there.  Why else would you choose that location to go fishing?  When you ask a question of higher consciousness, it is the same thing.  Like fishing, sometimes you will receive an answer and sometimes not.  Trust that there is a reason, but do ask the question.  The fish are there in abundance.  Some things you must puzzle out on your own for your soul’s growth.  It is a good thing to teach a man to fish.  You are so very loved.
