Sometimes, life shifts from what we thought it was going to be, to something completely different.

Sometimes, that shift can be a monumental, big, world-shaking thing that we think we’ll never recover from.

Sometimes, it’s just a quiet moment in which we realise something about ourselves and make a decision to change.

More often than not that shift can lead to a time of uncertainty, of confusion, of uncomfortable-ness.

A time where nothing is sure.

Sometimes our unconscious fights it, wanting things to go back to the way they always have been, because it felt safe and we knew who and what and where we were.  It tells us that it was much better when we were sure about stuff and that being unsure about things is dangerous.

Certainty and safety and surety are absolutely ok.  It’s just that sometimes being so certain, so safe and so sure about things means that we place limits on ourselves and our lives because we forget that there might be other possibilities out there that we haven’t explored yet that could turn out to be a better way of doing things than we had been up until now.

So sometimes we need to sit with the uncertainty, the confusion, the uncomfortable feelings and thoughts for a while.

Because when nothing is sure, everything is possible.
