As I came to the top of a hill on my run today and saw this view, I remembered some advice I’d given myself last year when life seemed to be happening at a faster-than-a-speeding-bullet rate like it is now: You don’t have to decide everything right now.
Though all those schedules and deadlines might be like that snow on the mountain, life itself is the mountain. It will be there when the snow melts. It will go through another season, looking the same as it always has. It will stand in that same place no matter what the storms may bring. I know life changes but until one’s last breath, it’s still life. It’s still there to be lived and survived and used.
The pressure I’m feeling to make decisions and changes in my life is only coming from me. I can turn it on so easily, it’s turning it off that needs work. And I’m working on it. It’s going to be a lot easier to get over the mountains and through the storms without the extra weight of over-analysis and doubt.
