Wednesday May 3rd I was watching the Judy Blum documentary on Prime Video and it taught me something…
It taught me that you may meet rejection over and over again before you see acceptance; and even once you see acceptance, criticism will come along. It'll sweep you away like a waterfall hitting a calm river; causing its currents to take you in a direction you never anticipated.
Control is something we all want; we yearn for it. We are hungry for it. We hope that if we can just grasp control; we will have things figured out or at least have a plan for when something goes left. But "controool" (in the rhythm of Janet Jacksons 1986 hit) is something we don’t really have. If anything we live in an illusion of control.
The one thing we can have is something we can’t see; something that requires a since of imagination; requires the decision to believe in things unseen. We can have Faith. We can hold Faith tight. So tight, that what we believe to be true can manifest into reality. But it’s usually never how we believe it will go, hints the lack of control.
