Not knowing what’s next can be nerve-wracking at times, especially if there have been many curves and bumps lately. Sometimes we imagine that life comes at us, like unexpected and random meteors, rather than that it unfolds organically. We’re tired of being surprised, much less shocked, by things that occur. We wonder, What’s next? So, tell me this: Are you tiptoeing in terror toward the unknown, biting your nails in suspense about the potentials and possibilities? Or are you calmly going about your daily tasks with equanimity? Ultimately, it’s the same story you’re living, but how you write it makes all the difference. If you enjoy the thrill of drama and suspense, by all means relish the tension. If you’re worn out by it, let a current of serenity take over. It’s your life story, one that you want to enjoy remembering and retelling. You may as well write the story that you want to read. The exact same event, relationship, or experiences can be seen through the lens of so many different genres! And keep in mind that whatever your life is like now, one thing is true: it goes on. There’s always another corner to turn.
