A blessing for the new year

In this season of goal-setting and resolutions for the new year, this is the sign I currently have in my yard:

It is okay not to know

I love this reminder, especially right now.

It is okay to want something, and not know how you're going to get it.

It is also okay not to know exactly what you want.

It is okay to think you know, and find out you were wrong.

It is okay not to be fully in control of what happens. To take action despite your uncertainty. To keep uncovering your own ignorance.

In other words, to be alive.

In this year ahead, may you feel that aliveness. And may it lead you exactly where you want to go.
