JUST AMBIGUOUS

“I always wanted a happy ending. I learned, the hard way that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it without knowing what’s going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.” ~ Gilda Radner ~

Change always begin with an ending, a death of sorts and sometimes  an actual death, and ends with a beginning. In between it moves through an ambiguous zone of uncertainty when you don’t know what to do and where to turn. The new beginning arrives when you make a choice to move on, accept your situation, take the moment that is life and make the best of it. When you in the mist of a struggle, when you have just lost someone you loved, when you just heard the news of a bad tragedy it doesn't feel delicious at the time, JUST AMBIGUOUS. 

But in time we can learn to appreciate the ambiguity to the point that it is delicious because what is the alternative. The alternative to ambiguity is to pretend that we have certainty, to pretend that we have security, to pretend that we know which is so often going to be a delusion, which is going to leave a sour taste in our mouths and in our lives. So in the big scheme of things it is delicious is the only way that life could be.

To live is to change. To change is to grow. To grow is to experience growing pains. At times, it may even feel like you are being pulled up by the roots and turned upside down. Stay with it. Your richest potential exists in the under soil, beneath the circumstances, deep in the cells of who you are at your essence. Change is unearthing your highest potential.

“Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge.” ― Eckhart Tolle

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”
