Whenever I leap I have no idea where the net is coming from. Sometimes I am stuck in the free fall wondering where I am gonna land and if the net is even gonna appear and what the fuck am I gonna do if it doesn’t. But leaping into the unknown always unfolds the most magic. In my creations, collaborations. I don’t trust that the net is gonna appear, I trust that the unknown will deliver a lesson and that I will grow from this – no matter the net.
This is the space of creation for me. It feels like continuous leaps and wandering into dusty caves and a whole big adventure I don’t know where the fuck I am going but know the journey is the thing I am interested in taking. If I stay curious and operate from space beyond binary there is only information I can discover.
I am in a season of unknowing. Of having no real plot point on a map to make it to but keeping my eyes open along the journey to take in the information I need. Every time I turn to myself I see the impacts my work makes. The ripples I will never see or understand.
I am like Paddington clumsily stumbling my way forward, I am trusting like the Rock in any adventure movie and hopeful like Anastasia. Unknowing but trusting in the journey – and knowing that everything is an experiment so there is only information I can collect. No wrong answers. I keep my trusty guides close and resource their encouragement and trust in the process. Jeff Probst in my ear telling me to draw from within, paying attention to my breath and nervous system to be my oracle.
I do not trust the unknown to gift me what I desire, but I trust the unknown to invite integrity and trust within myself. To be discerning about the information I can collect in the void of the leap and fall and process.
What mission are you here to journey through? And who/what are your inner guides? And can you jump into the journey? Be scared? Do it anyway?
PATHWAYS TO UNKNOWN
