unknown

No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. ~Hebrews 12:11





I’ve said it before and I still prescribe to it, at least from certain moments to others, it is the unknown that will make you wonder. Make you second guess. Make you start to ask questions you wouldn’t normally ask - or think of asking I suppose. I don’t know if its all that bad. Its just something that isn’t comfortable. I don’t know anyone who is at peace with the unknown. Personally, I’ve been known to embrace it; but does embracing the idea of the unknown really shaking its hand in acceptance and understanding? I think its more like climbing on a bull and holding on for all you have, hoping you can handle whatever comes your way.

I think thats where I am. I am holding on - not knowing what is about to happen, but I’ve got my hands wrapped in this rope of an experience and I’m hoping for greatness. I’m hoping for more than the eight seconds or fifteen minutes of fame. I’m going to continue to prepare and set myself up for success and wait for those answers to the questions that have somehow eluded me in the presence of the things I have yet to discover.
