Lights Out,What Now?

On my list I had:

Pieces ~Solid

Familiarization ~Clear

Cheer~On Board

Plan B~ What for?

Among the qualities/items I needed to kick start the journey, plan B didn’t ring as one of them. With the pieces of the puzzle, a fair understanding of what each piece represents and an optimistic attitude for the road, it seemed like I had it all figured out, well at least until I got to the next station where the next quality I needed lay.

Encompassing plan B felt like a betrayal to my initial hope. Better phrased, it felt like I didn’t have enough faith that what I had or rather my understanding of the execution wasn’t enough and by now we’re all aware that feelings of inadequacy aren’t a boat I wanted or ever want to float in.

Questions along the lines of, “What if the concept I’ve grasped in regards to strength isn’t the only theory there is out there?’’ definitely crossed my mind. Strength had been characterized by standing up for myself and ensuring I’m heard. This was in no way a crime but as the journey progressed it became clearer that sometimes strength meant keeping quiet. What a blow it was! Part of me felt like I was becoming weaker or drawing back (living as a lesser version of myself), a feeling I dreaded. Therefore, instead of trying to familiarize with a new facet of the same piece, I battled it, but we all know that gravity is a fact and not an opinion and likewise I needed to willingly learn the beauty of applying the same principle in a different way.

Even if a pastry chef has fully paid their electricity bill, there’s no harm in them having a pile of firewood on standby, just in case there’s a power cut. Sure, the cake might not have the exact properties (aroma wise) as it would have, had it been baked in the oven but just because a different method was used does not mean that the product is any less worthy of acknowledgement. Simply put, a different application of the same concept can still produce the desired result.

Thinking otherwise tends to strip us of the opportunity to advance as we would desire. You can be silently powerful or stealthily progressive, it’s not contradictory, it’s paradoxical. To every soul that’s ever thought that having options for the execution of a plan, serves as an indicator that one does not have full confidence in what they have resolved to doing or is a sign that the plan is not bullet proof then please hear me out, ‘’Resorts are a not an absence of trust but a greater belief that the destination ought to be reached even if it means reanalysis of the power of a concept.”

The post, “When All You Have Are Pieces” speaks on the importance of becoming acquainted with the properties of a concept. This should be regularly done as with the changing seasons comes new meanings. Take time to reflect on meanings that you’ve held on to that may not speak to your current season and find out what you really need to be using that root for, anchoring or storing.
