Things I don't know {right now}

Why I believe all arguments can end peacefully. {I cannot help it, there just has to be a way.}

Why it's taking so long to shrug this horrible mixture of confused and overwhelmed sitting smack in the middle of my chest. {I'm letting myself feel it, all of it and it's uncomfortableness and waiting for it to process and let go.)

Why I always choose the positive, to see the beauty, the good and the wonder in everything and everyone. {An eternal optimist, that's just me.}

What anyone else is going through at any given time {I've said this before, and I'll keep reminding myself again.}

Why just one hour alone {meditating, reading, writing, stopping, being still} is all I need to recharge and gather my thoughts and rebuild my heart. {Love that it is, love that I can.}

Things I don't know

Often I reflect on what I know, what I'm learning {what I've learnt} and I ponder what and how I feel. And then I write.

I wonder about all that too - what I know, what I feel, what I see and what I don't. And then I write.

Sometimes I just write.

But lately, I've been caught up in all I really don't know. {And not writing}.

I'm forever wanting to learn {hear, understand, read} new things. But mostly I want to relearn what I do know on a deeper level.

Maybe that's why I love yoga so much. I may have practiced the same pose for five years but how I feel it and the way I witness it changes almost every time.

This week when I sat down to write, what I do know got shuffled to the back of my mind and what I don't know buzzed forth.

I'm sure the answers to what I don't know will come when I need them {or not at all if I don't need them...}

Things I don't know:

~ What anyone else is going through at any one time. {Acknowledging that makes me more accepting, forgiving, tolerant, understanding}.

~ Why it took me so long to work out I just needed to slow down. {Wow, life feels so much better at this pace.}

 ~ Why I can't get to the end of my to-do list. Ever.

~ Why I think having three different to-do lists will make me more efficient. I'm just confused. And unsure where to start.
~ Why {for the first time} I don't feel I need a Christmas present this year. {I think my recent gratitude practice may have something to do with it though...}
 ~ Why I keep changing my mind about what I want to be when I grow up. {And if that will ever stop...}

~ Why we {little miss three and I} can't find a rainbow. It rains and then the sun shines. That should equal a rainbow. Right?

~ Why friends you haven't spoken to in years come back into your life at the perfect time. {Love that they do}.

{Writing down what I don't know reinforces that there's so much more to learn and see and be amazed by in this world. Although, sometimes what I don't know {understand} just baffles me. Maybe there are more Things I Don't Know posts to come. We'll see...}
