This is how I know.
I've been here before. Different context, different scenery, different time, different you and different me but it's the same situation.
I've learned and I've grown. I know the risks and I know the challenge. I know it will be difficult and I haven't been able to do it before. I wasn't ready. I wasn't aware. I wasn't sure. But now it's different somehow.
Now makes me see how important the past was. It was training and being given teachings. Except the teachings were real life and people and interactions. Mistakes and grief, depression, self-loathing, realizations and strength building. The strength to stand up again even in adversity. When the unexpected naturally appears out of nowhere.
It's important to embrace the unexpected, to not hold on too tightly to our desires so that what is meant to be can be. It usually ends up being much better than we can imagine, although it isn't always easy getting through the rough patches in between.
I know that there is a lot of uncertainty and I have no idea how things will turn out. But I am ready and I understand the risks and the difficulty and the process. I know because my life has led me in this direction for a reason. . .to put all of my learning and skills and knowledge and experience to work. It's not a challenge that I have set for myself, it's one that has come naturally and to back down from it, after such specific training, would be the wrong choice.
And this time, we're going to win.
