Anxiousness...and Grace

I cannot tell you what lies ahead. But I can tell you: you will grow. I can tell you: there is no shame in feeling anxious about all you do not know. Your ability to keep going each day is a sign of courage all on its own. I know that peace feels far away, as you tried to make sense of all of the change. And I just hope you can remember this: you do not have to make sense of it all in order to be worthy of peace. You are worthy of the practice of peace, even here in the uncertainty. You are free to take long, intentional inhales. You are free to take long, intentional exhales, trusting that even here in the gaps, this is a part of the story you will tell. This is an act of learning how to be strong and gentle all at once. This moment right here is an opportunity to be the one who keeps breathing in the unknown, knowing that this too is an act of bravery. Yes, learning to breathe in times like these is no small feat. Yes, you are doing brave things, even when it does not feel that way. So if you feel a little anxious, it's okay. It is not too late to work your way back to this present moment where you can be reminded that breathing is a miraculous thing. Breathing is a sign of strength. Breathing is the way that you can rest as you prepare for what comes next. There are so many things you do not know, and this is also true: you will still learn and grow as you go. And the best way to keep going is to learn to travel at a mindful pace, where you are reminded with every step and every breath, you are wrapped in endless grace.
