How do you go living in the grey areas?
You know the part that sits between knowing exactly what to do and what not to do. The space that exists between what was and what will be. The things that can’t simply be a yes / no or an either/or.
It’s a space full of maybe & ‘it depends’. It encompasses the both/and. And sometimes ‘I don’t know’. That’s the grey area.
It can be a tough place to sit in, especially if you’re into having ALL the control and love a solid plan ALL of the time. I’ll put my hand up to that. Our current situation wasn’t in my plan, how about yours?
I’m trying my best to make this grey area as light grey as I can, with more light than dark. If I don’t, my anxiety will have a field day (and trust me, I’ve had my moments.)
What does that mean?
Looking for hope & growth & beauty every day. Writing down things I’m grateful for and making space to journal all of my thoughts & feelings without filter (however positive, negative or messy). Talking it out again and again with hubs or a friend if I need. Holding space for others to express their feelings & thoughts. Limiting my exposure to the news. Pressing into my faith. Choosing my thoughts again & again until I get to a better place. Being kind with my assumptions of myself and other people (that’s a biggie, especially when people buy all the eggs.) Admitting that I don’t know what I’m actually doing, because I’ve never been in this grey area before (no one has) and it’s okay not to know. Trusting that I’m doing my best, with what I have and with what I know. How are you going in this grey area? Are you okay?
