What Will Transpire?

I Don’t Know

1–2 minutes

I know I have been quiet lately. I’m still here, and I have several essay topics and even draft content on paper and in my head. But nothing is landing for me right now.

I start something, think I know where I’m going with it, and then it either takes a turn that requires rethinking, or I hit a dead-end and I just don’t know where to go with it next. Or, worst of all, I start trying to shoehorn it into something profound. Gross. No.

So right now, I am just giving in to not knowing.

To be honest, I don’t mind it. I spent a lot of my life trying to prove or pretend that I knew what I was doing. It’s kind of nice just to say, I currently have no idea. I might have more on this concept later. But right now, I just don’t know.

    I’m glad you are not feeling pressure to produce something now. I know many who are producing are sut spinning – so THAt is not good either.

    I’m sticking with the Avett Brothers song “Head Full of Doubt”

    “When nothing is owed, deserved or expected, And your life doesn’t change by the man that is elected [well this line doesn’t work] If you are loved by someone and never rejected Decide what to be and go be it.”

    The full song and lyrics are here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjwlDNwJRpE&list=RDJjwlDNwJRpE&start_radio=1

    It is the deciding that is the hard part

    Hope we can connect soon!
