The Unknown

Life. What a beautiful thing. Fully of endless beauty, enchantment, and sometimes - it feels like - even magic. Part of life's appeal is the unknown. Some people fear the unknown - they can't stand it. Some can only find comfort in what they can see, what they can hear, what they can touch. Yet, sometimes, the most amazing things happen without any warning at all. They creep up on you completely unaware, and they change your life.

I have had many instances of this. Life can move in so many directions, and shift without even the slightest warning. You don't know how you got from one point to the next. Sometimes it's scary, sometimes it's heartbreaking, but other times it is one of the best things that could ever happen to you.

When I wake up I don't fear the unknown, I relish it. Mostly because I know that I will be okay and I have God to thank for that. I put all my faith in Him, and even though I don't know what will come my way, I can feel him. And He has never steered me wrong. He has always been the light in the darkness - the greatest guide I could ever ask for.

So don't be afraid. Embrace life. Live it. You only get one, so you might as well do the most with it. There are lots of things that people fear, but not many of those fears are actually worth being afraid of. So take a step, take a breath, take a chance. The unknown might just be the best thing that will ever come your way.
