Life is unpredictable. No matter how much planning or hard work one puts into life it still has aspects that are out of your control. Always remember that you are not necessarily the composer of your life song. More of the performer who can improvise is as you choose.
You can choose where your life goes, but you cannot choose when to resolve those horrible diminished moments. You have to let them happen. Those moments in when it just hurts your stomach to hear a melody that you didn't expect. It doesn't fit in the key, it's not what you wanted to play, and it sounds absolutely horrible compared to what you originally had planned. You can't resolve it early otherwise you will not get the full idea the composer wanted. To get the message of the piece you have to continue through this section of dissonance and just trust that it will resolve soon.
Sections can go on for a long time but hearing that resolution at the end always makes it worth it. To know that it finally made it to a place even better than before. I pray that if any of you how are reading this and actually can understand my analogy can relate to this will keep going. Sections that go on for a while without resolving are exhausting to go through- physically, mentally, and even emotionally. I have realized that the strain you go through makes you stronger and so much more appreciative of every major cadence that resolves when you have been stuck with chords dissonance for so long. It is worth it, let the composer resolve it. God really does know when is the best time to resolve that section. There might be a hundred chords that you know how to resolve correctly in the piece but if God hasn't resolved it, chances are the one He resolves is going to be a lot better.
