Ever been caught at a crossroad? Speaking for myself, I’ve reached so many crossroads that I think I meet them more then I get to an actual destination. Anyways, we always run into new situations, changes, and things that we have to choose and make decisions for. Decisions that will greatly impact the way our lives play out. I wish that when life takes us through its crazy turns, and when were brought into new situations, that we had instincts like the sea turtle. A sea turtle stays in their shells until their ready and then they tear their shells apart and introduce themselves to the world. Once they tear the shells apart, with their snout they dig through the sand to reach the surface and then instinctively head towards the ocean; This is key for survival. I am baffled at the thought and sights of this. How in the world do they know exactly where to go right after being born? I wish that I had the instinct of sea turtles. I wish I knew immediately without hesitation what to do when I am approached with a new scenario. I wish that I had a survival tactic like them to know exactly what to do. I know the journey is what makes you, you. I know that the purpose of life is for you to find your way, but I still cant help to look at the sea turtles with a sort of envy that with no experience or no guidance they know exactly what to do. Changes and new situations can definitely prove to be challenging and overwhelming. I guess that’s what having faith is all about. The being confident that your going to make it through, regardless if then and there you don’t know what to do.
It's in the time of unknowing that having faith is what sees you through to the other side. Faith is what gives you strength. Faith is that light in your heart that keeps on shining even when it's all darkness outside. Now is the time to keep that faith alive!
