A storm has blown in my direction. Slowly went from Sunshine weeks to a category 4 Hurricane. What happens when your life is turned upside down? What happens when everything you thought you knew becomes a foreign language? Well recently I have had to face those questions. How on earth do you find HAPPINESS in UNCERTAINTY? I cannot answer that question; I can only give my opinion.
The way to find Happiness, of course comes from contentment. We have no clue what tomorrow may bring, but we think we do. If you were to ask me; of course I'd say… "Wake up, meditate, making breakfast, entertain my daughter, clean, teach class, go home make dinner, head out back to teach class, drive, drive, drive, home, shower, wife time, check email, sleep, and start over all over again." But that's what I THINK! I have no clue what life really has in store for me, so why when I think something has just slapped me in the face out of the blue, do I act surprised? Life is uncertain! Nothing is planned. Nothing is scheduled.
The beauty of uncertainty is living with it, living in the moment, the flow of things. Yoga teaches you not only in your asanas but in meditation, and reflection that life is what it is. Trusting in your contentment will allow you to be happy even in times when it seems okay to leap off the cliff. Become aware that there is no real control over all beings, things, and the rotation of the universe. Everything will happen... with or without our plans. Becoming aware of the pure uncertainty of life is one way to enjoy it.
Yesterday I was filled with tears; Afraid because my plans had been taken by someone else's plans. Today I am free. Okay with what happened and what will happen. I promise myself that I will learn to live with uncertainty, and be happy with all things that encounter my orbit. Love is life… Life is happiness… Happiness is found in the same things… Uncertainty is surprises happiness give us all.
