A Good Word For Today


Become an I dont know it all.

Whenever you find yourself getting anxious about the big and small deaths of daily lifebeing out of control, not getting what you want, endings and partingstake a few minutes to allow in the possibility that you do not see the full picture. Often what looks terrible today will, in retrospect, have been a blessing. Just allow that possibility in. You do not have to understand or figure everything out. You can relax into the mystery of not knowing.

Just like ... if one door closes ... just wait to see what is behind the door that will eventually open, it could be something that is a hundred times better! Thank you! I did experience that out of control situation this week-end with AH and there is a possibliity that there maybe some changes coming because of that chaos. Time will tell. In the meantime I will take care of myself and "relax into the mystery of not knowing".

Yes, I get this. This is how I see my higher power, the feeling that I cant see round corners and so whats happening right now is supposed to be happening and the reasons may be way beyond me. When I get obsessed about searching for the reasons then thats when it goes downhill. Thanks for this.
