Accept the situation for exactly what it is.
Acceptance means for now, this is what this situation, this moment requires me to do.
~ Eckhart Tolle
I haven’t written my blog in a while. I have not been feeling optimistic or upbeat. Honesty I have been struggling. I’ve also been questioning should I continue writing as my followers have pretty much been close friends and family. With all that is happening in my life, I realize I have been missing this blog. I write it more for me than for anyone else. It helps me clear my thoughts and see through all that is happening.
I have not felt this unsettled in years. So many things going on right now and not one thing that is in my control. My life, my daughter going to college, will school and my job start in the fall, when will life return to normal, and when will my fear of catching this horrible virus go away. The list goes on and on. Not one of these things I have any say or control of.
I talk about acceptance and living a day at a time all the time. I do it with the emphasis on gratitude and living each day to the fullest. Today, I am coming from a different angle. Living for today by accepting the fact that my life is uncertain, that I do not know what is going to happen tomorrow. I don’t even know what is going to happen an hour from now.
I am having a hard time. I deal well with knowing what course to take. What I struggle with is the complete unknown. Right now, I feel like everything is a complete unknown. What can I do?
Nothing!! There is nothing I can do. All I can do is accept that it is what it is and do nothing. Truthfully, is there anything harder than to stand by without a plan of what is to be? I can’t think of one. All I can do is remember to breath, trust the process and let life unfold.
Step back. Allow things to unfold. There’s a beauty to be found in letting things be. -Tamara Levitt
