Buddhists believe that when a lot of difficult and chaotic things are going on at once, it is to protect something fragile and beautiful that is trying to get itself born.

(Which is certainly something to cling to in these incredibly chaotic times!)

I love this ❤️ As I was reading through your post, this sentence stood out "There is difficulty living in the in-between" and a question popped into my head: "But isn't all of life just living in-between (of knowing)?" Of course, sometimes we feel more secure, but most often we're just winging it with a stronger sense of confidence.

Oh wow you are so right. The in-between is life itself!!! 🤯 I brought this up in conversation today with a friend and she said maybe it's about acceptance too. How at some points in life we feel more confident as you say, but also sometimes we are more ready to accept than other times. Definitely interesting to think about!
