It's kind of amazing how the uncertainty of life hits you every once in a while,
Kind of whispers with a smug smile,
"you know why you don't know
where you're going?
It's because you don't know where you can go. There is no way to know the right path.
Think of me as a river,
I flow where I wish.
And take everyone with me.
Survival is based solely one thing.
Not fighting the current."
It's amazing how the desire to live can kill you.
How fighting so hard can in fact make you come to a stand still.
It is extremely difficult and heartbreaking to watch others seemingly swim by with ease.
As if you didn't give all you have
to survive to this point
and others are making a mockery of it.
Uncertainty will teach you how to struggle, show you very specific ways how
life is almost impossible to maneuver alone, uncertainly can explain many a bad decision, can replay the memories of days
where years just felt like jarring collisions.
But there is release in accepting the current. When the schedules don't keep it all in place
or the plans go awry,
there is some strange peace
in just resigning yourself to the fact
that it is the way it is.
And there is some comfort to be found
in knowing that it will be this way,
up in the air,
for a long time.
After all, sometimes we end up
grateful for the chaos,
for in it we find treasures that we never searched for.
And most times they are the ones
that last forever.
