“When you become comfortable with uncertainty, infinite possibilities open up for your life.” – Eckhart Tolle (Twitter)

2022 is my year for POSSIBILITIES, which is helping unpack the let-me-control-things / planning side of me. (I’m sure no one can relate.) The past few years have taught me a lot about living in the gray. Not only living in it, but embracing it, welcoming it, inviting it in like an old friend. I no longer seek black and white explanations for how the world works or why God’s love feels far sometimes. I simply accept that there is more mystery than I will ever have answers for, more that happens out of my control than in it, and somehow, this has brought me more comfort than I ever had when needing to know all the answers and have a buttoned-up, one-size-fits-all life.

Possibilities leaves much room for improvisation, expansion, joy, delight, and surprise. It expands my practice of being comfortable with non-dualistic thinking, outcomes, choices, and decisions.

It is delicately balancing living with immense gratitude for the here and now, acknowledging the uncertain state of the world, and still having hope for good things ahead.

It includes learning at every moment, seeing opportunities for good around every corner, and recognizing limitless potential for my life and the world around me.

It’s continuing to return to my true self, discover new things that set my soul on fire, experiencing life in even more full, extraordinary ways.

It’s about taking inspired action while letting go out of the outcomes, truly embracing my “the joy is in the journey” belief.

And it’s deeply inspired by the present, allowing me to take this one wild, precious life one day at a time. Because the world is full of endless possibilities just for me, and every day has the potential for more. (By the way, I believe this is true for you, too.)
