The unknown can be terrifying. We wake up not knowing what’s going to happen today. There could be a number of good things or a number of bad things to happen. We live in the fear of the unknown, but we also expect the unknown. As a person with chronic illnesses, I don’t know what to expect most days, as most others feel the same. We don’t know what to expect from our doctors, our families, our friends. We don’t know if the flare is coming to haunt us for a few days, or is finally giving up and leaving. We don’t know how we will feel tomorrow or the next day. We worry and we stress because that’s human nature. We can’t fight something that’s meant to be and that will happen whether we want it to or not. It’s involuntary. Most days we look past that fear that we have of the unknown. Some days it can consume us. We have to continue to be strong and we have to continue to fight. We cannot let the fear overrun our lives. We have to continue to look past it. We are not in control of what’s going to happen. It’s going to happen anyway. No one knows what’s going to happen. I think that if we did know what was going to happen we would all be so paranoid all the time that we wouldn’t be able to focus on the good things that happen in our lives. Take the time to appreciate the little things. Take the time to say I love you. Take the time to help others and to be kind. Take the time to appreciate the little things as cannot say that enough. Life can be enjoyable. Give hugs. Give kisses. Help others learn to laugh and to love. Embrace the unknown.
