safety nets.
We as humans hate change, absolutely despise it for the most part. We know the end results of our comfortable day to day life, now this may be with routine like a job or maybe this is your significant other, but regardless, at the end of the day you know the results because this is your safety net. You refuse to change, go into the unknown because you don’t know the results. Why change when you can just stay as you are and already know the ending of the story? It’s a shame really. We all do it, I am 110% guilty of using my safety net and refusing to let go of that. We need to take leaps, into the unknown. Yeah. It’s scary but how do you know it won’t be the best thing to ever happen to you? You don’t. You get one life and it’s hard to actually grasp that concept, until your own life flashes before your eyes. I realize this post is jumping from one thing to another so please don’t mind my messy mind. However, life is always going to be a 50/50 chance. You can stay in your comfort zone and never know how things will turn out and just stick with your day to day routines or take a chance of changing your life for the better. It’s a tough decision we all have to make. But you know what? I’d rather have a life full of oh wells than what ifs. I’m not saying go out and do drugs and say oh well. I’m saying, if you’re not happy, make a change. If you want to move away and start a new job but you’re scared because you don’t know how it’ll turn out, go do it! It’s scary, this whole damn life is scary, sadly that will never change. Go be happy, Lord knows most of us have been living in agony anyway. I hate not knowing how things will end so I’ll get in this stuck phase/feeling that I can’t change because I don’t know what will happen, but what I loathe even more? Knowing I could regret not jumping into the unknown and it turning out to be the absolute best thing to ever happen to me.
So. Be afraid, be excited, be messy, but show up anyway and jump into the unknown.
