Comfort within the discomfort.
Life has been terrifyingly beautiful lately. The unknowns have poured their way into my life and yet at the same time, there are a few knows that have caused my soul to bloom.
The uncertainty of it all used to be something that scared me dearly. And now it seems like we court one another.
“Bring it on.”

Nothing good has ever come from comfort zones. Lately however, I’ve been in a much deeper introspection with what is going to bring me happiness in my life. There have been some absolutely huge revelations alongside deep questions about what truly is next.
I know that there is a path for me to follow that resonates with my heart…and at the same time there have been new revelations along the way. What I do know is this…
When you are looking around the bend in life and see something that you want for yourself…and even more have the courage to go and see what that is…you find things along the way that you would never have anticipated.
Often situations come right out of the blue and surprise you. You would never expect things to go the way they do but that’s the point of it all.
You’re supposed to be living in the mystery of everything. You’re supposed to understand that you don’t know absolutely jack squat. Because you don’t. That’s just the honest truth. While you’re off making plans life is actually happening. Someone famous once said that. I have absolutely no idea who.
But the point is you have to be fluid enough to see something all the way through and flexible enough to understand that you might have to change your initial plans because of how life is treading along. Being rigid is absolute sin.
That’s a recipe for disaster.
You have to roll with what is being delivered to you and understand that your job is to make things happen…not to try to force you way it in a way that it’s not supposed to go.
I’ve been asking questions these past few days. A lot of questions. And yet, they all lead me back to one place. The same place of my vision all those months ago.
And at the same time, there’s this warmth.
Warmth within me despite any amount of uncertainty.
And that has caused me to bloom again. The wildflowers have come back out. Yes of course there has been some unknowns but at the same time…the heart knows what’s right.
And that, I have faith will win. That’s something I’ve always believed in…but the truth is, I really know it now.
Love wins.
