Come into a comfortable posture that allows you to fully surrender into the support of the earth beneath you.
Begin to notice your breathing,
Where it resides in this moment,
Without judgment or changing.
Uncertainty.
It's a common theme in all of our lives.
Whether it's for a season,
For a decade,
A brief moment,
Or every day of our lives.
But perhaps you haven't viewed uncertainty in this particular way before.
If you think about what your life would be,
If you had everything revealed to you,
What would that look like?
Would that look like stability,
Predictability?
Would it look safe?
Would it feel like you would have everything in control that you ever wanted?
Perhaps some of those would be true,
But what we might not see is what we would be sacrificing without uncertainty in our life.
A life without uncertainty would create a sacrifice that you would have to examine,
And it would be a life without adventure or without passion.
How could we truly have passion or adventure in our life if we had everything revealed to us?
Everything in the next 50 years,
You would know exactly how it would happen,
When it would happen,
And how you would respond to it.
If we shift our fear of uncertainty to just simply letting go of our need or desire to know all of the outcomes,
And we can become willing to trust and breathe and lean into our supports within the universe.
That in and of itself is simply living.
You live your life with uncertainty by your side,
And focus in on the positives that uncertainty brings to your life.
It colors it,
It paints it,
It adds vibrancy,
Adventure,
And passion.
All of these things that many of us live for.
We live for the surprise laughter.
We live for the big dip down into the valley when we thought that the only way we could go was up.
It keeps us humble.
It reminds us that we are valuable and fragile all at the same time.
It allows us to live a bit deeper,
Love a bit harder.
Would you really want to sacrifice and give all that up?
Just to have everything revealed to you?
Continue to reflect on these questions,
Reflect on the life lessons and the amazing,
Awesome adventures that uncertainty provides for your life.
Allow it to be a guide,
Be a friend,
And continue to grow.
Remain here in this meditation for as long as you need.
Continue to deepen and lean into the supports beneath you.
Until next time,
Breathe easy friends.
