There's really no such thing as certainty. It's all truly uncertain.
In fact, uncertainty is very beautiful however. When you live in a world stuffed with uncertainty, you give yourself the great opportunity to live in full possibility and be deeply happy. Those two things come hand in hand. When you start to try and separate yourself from uncertainty by proscribing what your future is going to seem like, that is when you can begin to get into a pinch of discomfort. As thrilling as that's to do, you become no longer in touch with true reality and distance yourself from individuals that are present at this time. There's little worse than living in some place that you can't really go to, and therefore, missing out on all that is really going down at this time.
That's my story.
Living in the future and neglecting the present.
Not that this way of doing things was a horrible thing all of the time, although it was misaligned with the deep underlying sense of wanting connection with others. I knew that I wanted that connection, so I had to begin making some changes. I suspect the balance of where goals and dreams lie with someone who has great ambitions is they must truly appreciate what they have now, be the person that they envision in the future at the moment, and learn that the future is only going to be a full illustration of deep purpose of what is happening in their life right this moment.
My problem was that I looked at the future as a place where it would all turn out and everything would be fine. Wrong. You need to be OK with what is going on today. When you can really live in the current time and let the uncertainty of the future handle itself, happiness creeps in.
Learn to tap into this moment and appreciate it for what it is. That really is all we can do right?
Uncertainty is the name of the game.
