I just feel lost,
I feel like I am aimlessly wandering,
Like I'm tired of that feeling,
I'm tired of that feeling of,
You know,
Just staying in limbo,
I'm tired of seeming like it's not going anywhere,
Spinning my wheels.
You don't need to be anywhere else or feel anything different than what you're feeling right now.
You don't need to sit perfectly or breathe in any special way.
You can be curled up on your couch,
Lying in bed,
Or even walking around.
Your restlessness is welcome here.
First,
Let's just acknowledge the truth of how exhausting this is.
That constant background noise of,
What am I doing with my life?
It drains you,
Even when you're not actively thinking about it.
The spinning,
The searching,
The endless mental loops of trying to figure it all out.
Of course you are tired.
Place your hand somewhere on your body,
Your chest,
Your stomach,
Your thigh,
Wherever feels natural.
This isn't about finding some zen state.
This is just about connecting with the simple fact that you are here.
You are alive,
And you are trying to navigate something really difficult.
That effort counts,
Even when it feels pointless.
Now what if I told you that feeling lost isn't a sign that something's wrong with you?
What if this wandering,
This limbo you're in,
Is actually a necessary space?
Not a pleasant one,
But a necessary one.
Think about actual,
Physical wandering for a moment.
When you're lost in a new place,
Panic does not help you find your way,
Neither does standing still and demanding that the path appear.
What helps is getting quiet enough to notice the landmarks that were already there.
Your inner landmarks are still there too,
Beneath all the noise and confusion.
There are things that constantly matter to you,
Small things that spark something,
Even if you can't see how they connect to a bigger picture yet.
You don't need to build a life plan around them right now.
Just notice that they exist.
Here's something that might surprise you.
The very fact that you're tired of being stuck means part of you is ready to move on.
That frustration you feel,
It's not your enemy.
It's your inner wisdom saying there's more for you than this.
It's the part of you that knows your worth,
Even though you may not feel it.
You don't have to know where you're going to take a small next step.
You don't have to see the whole staircase to climb the first one.
Sometimes,
The way forward only reveals itself when we stop demanding to see it all at once.
What if this limbo you're in is not wasted time?
What if it's the space between who you were and who you are becoming?
The chrysalis looks like nothing is happening,
But everything is happening inside,
Quietly waiting to emerge.
Waiting to emerge at the perfect moment.
Rest here for a moment with this possibility.
Perhaps you're not as lost as you think.
Maybe you're exactly where you need to be for the next part of your story to unfold.
Not because this feels good,
It doesn't,
But because sometimes we have to get completely tired of where we are before we're ready to truly move.
This wandering isn't failure.
This search isn't broken.
You are in the space where transformation begins.
You do not have to have it all figured out,
You just have to be willing to take the next breath,
The next step,
The next moment as it comes.
That is enough.
You are enough.
Right here.
Right now.
In all of this uncertainty,
You are enough.
And now I invite you to take three slow,
Deep breaths and come into the next part of
