This track is a reflective meditation for anyone sitting in the uncertainty of life’s in-between moments. It offers a space to pause, acknowledge the unknown, and trust that even without clear answers, growth is happening beneath the surface. Through gentle imagery and introspective prompts, it encourages you to release the need for immediate clarity and find peace in simply being. If you’re feeling unsteady or in transition, this is an invitation to soften, surrender, and trust the unfolding of your path.

There is something unsettling about not knowing.

The mind craves clarity,

A map,

A destination,

But what if,

Right now,

There is none?

What if this space,

The in-between,

Isn't empty,

But full of something we can't yet see?

I've been sitting with this lately,

The questions,

The doubt,

The feeling of standing at a crossroads where every path is covered in fog.

I don't know what's next.

I don't know where I'm supposed to go.

But I do know this,

My intention is clear.

My heart is rooted in service,

In something bigger than me.

And maybe,

Just maybe,

That's enough for now.

So,

If you're here too,

If you're sitting in the unknown,

Feeling the weight of uncertainty,

Let's breathe together.

Inhale,

And exhale to sigh it out.

Let's not rush for answers.

Let's not force clarity that isn't ready to arrive.

Instead,

Let's be here,

In this moment,

Together.

Because what if uncertainty isn't a problem to solve but a space to hold,

A fertile space,

A becoming?

I think about how nature never rushes.

The seed doesn't demand to be a tree overnight.

The tide doesn't resist the ebb before the flow.

The moon never questions its next phase.

It simply waxes,

Wanes,

And trusts.

Can I trust like that?

Can you?

Maybe the in-between is asking us to soften,

To surrender,

To trust the invisible roots growing beneath us.

So I invite you to place a hand over your heart.

Feel its steady rhythm,

Even now in the unknown it beats.

It carries you forward,

One breath,

One moment at a time.

And maybe,

Just maybe,

That's all we need to do.

Breathe.

Be here.

Let life unfold.

And when the path reveals itself,

We'll be ready.

Right on time. I relate very strongly. Wanting to surrender to the unknown and unknowable but at the same time seeking answers, wisdom, direction. Waiting is hard. But, it seems, sometimes necessary.
