There's truly no such thing as certainty. It's all uncertain.
Truth be told, uncertainty is absolutely helpful in teaching you lessons however. When you live in a world brim-full of uncertainty, you give yourself the great opportunity to live in full and deep possibility and be really happy. Those two things come together. When you begin to separate yourself from uncertainty by restricting what your future is going to appear like, that is when you can begin to get into a dash of difficulty. As much fun as that is to do, you become out of touch with true reality and distance yourself from people who are here now. There's little worse than living in a place that you can't actually go to, and consequently, losing out on all that is really happening at the moment.
That is my story.
Living in the future and neglecting the present.
Not that this was a bad thing all of the time, though it was misaligned with the deep underlying sense of desiring connection with others. I knew that I wanted that connection, so I had to start making some changes. I believe the balance of where hopes and objectives lie with a person who has great ambitions is they must ...and should... appreciate what they have now, be the person who they envision in the future now, and learn for a fact that the future is only going to be a representation of deep purpose of what is occurring in their life right this moment.
My problem was that I looked at the future as a spot where it might all turn out and everything would be alright. Wrong. You need to be O.K with what is happening today. When you can actually live in the current time and let the uncertainty of the future handle itself, happiness creeps in.
Learn to link into this moment and appreciate it for what it is. That's all we can do right?
Uncertainty is the name of the game.
