Contemplating the future is probably not the most sensible use of my time, but it seems to have been foremost in my mind recently.
It makes no sense, really. It will be what it will be. If in my past, I had known of and contemplated the details needed to reach this particular present, I might not have ever made the journey necessary to actually be here, now. And as odd and complicated as the journey has been at times, and as difficult as certain potential future outcomes may now be, I wouldn’t change a bit of it, even if it were possible to do so. Being here, now, makes it all worth it.
And as much as the future has been on my mind recently, I am now able to say that I am totally at peace with it, however it plays out.
The future will happen, no matter what I do or say. It will do as it will do. And with my past record of trying to control things in my life, I am willing to give any power I may think I have now over to the future to control it all.
So far, whoever or whatever is in control has done a pretty good job of keeping me in the game. The future may take away people or things, but eventually it gives back.
I have to trust that it will remain true.
