Rest in the Unknown


NOTE TO SELF

The truth is so simple that it begs the question, then what do I do when I don't know what to do?

Rest in the unknown. 

Get comfortable with not knowing—loving and living the mystery, the ever-changing forms. Not clinging to one single apparition. And guess what?

It'll change.

No matter how confusing things seem to get or how stressful or even unpleasant, isn't it miraculous that even our worst moments, move on to something else.

Savor the unknown.

Instead of fighting it or trying to change what's already the case, enjoy in the unknown. Before too long, you'll get inspired to do something or you'll be prompted by a change in circumstances: a phone call, a bodily need, or an insight. And then everything will be OK with the world until the next instance when the unknown shows up once more, inviting you to bathe in its mystery.
