Before he enters the stage to conduct our symphony orchestra, the maestro says: “Into the unknown.” He is aware that while they have a plan for the performance, it’s a live event, and not everything may go as expected. He walks onto the platform confident that he will handle any “unknowns” thrown his way.
In reality, all of us enter into the unknown every day. We may have an idea of what we’d like to accomplish or a calendar full of commitments that map out our time, but reality may look entirely different. We say “I do” to a partner or adopt a baby, but relationships are all entering the unknowable.
Instead of being surprised or even angered when life throws a curve ball, adopt the philosophy of our maestro. Trust in your ability to handle whatever “into the unknown” brings you.
