There is always more than one way to handle any situation in life. Often there are multiple ways to handle situations if you are patient enough to let the options present themselves to you. So often action is taken out of desperation when what is needed is endurance and the opportunity for new truths to arise. When you choose to take an option that feels better than the situation that you are in, but that doesn’t feel like a perfect fit in your body, you are implying that you do not trust and believe that just the right option is available to you.
It is not to say that you should not take smaller steps in a different direction. It is to say that when you are seeking meaningful change you may need to be patient and wait. This is not an easy ask but if you allow yourself to seek out sweetness on your way to the next right thing you’ll notice that everything becomes a little bit more bareable.
We can’t promise that taking the patient path will be easy or blissful, but it can bring you pockets of peace and illumination.
If you worry less about the outcome and focus your intentions on the now, each step becomes easier and more breathable. The next five years could look entirely different if, moment to moment, you follow the desire emmanting from your quiet, honest truth.
Let yourself see the potentials and possibilities. Know that it is okay for you to feel uncertain. There would be no adventure in life if you were always so certain of everything, and the point is to have adventures that help you want, seek, and desire new things that lead to your evolution. When things feel serious, seek levity. Even the smallest doses will encourage you to carry on. All will come in due time, so do your best to find joy in this moment.
Remember that the sun also shines.
