Two Things

There are two things that bother me, almost more than anything else 
Being lost and being late 
Both make me crazy and neither one bothers my husband, at all 
Not even a little bit
He says,” we’ll get there when we get there”
He says,” we’re not lost, we’re just finding a different way to go 
and look at all the things you can see that you wouldn’t of seen otherwise”
Yes, my eyes roll at this 
But, he’s not wrong 
I’m sure it makes me nuts because when you have control issues 
Everything makes you nuts 
Traffic 
A line in a store 
Flight delays 
Slow talkers 
Customer service hold times 
I could go on and on
But, I would probably get lost down a rabbit hole of possibilities and it would make me very late for something
So, why as humans are we filled with the need for control 
We even want the weather to match our plans for the day 
It’s crazy right?
What if we were able to just let life be 
To allow the moment in front of us to just unfold 
To live relaxed 
Unclenched 
Open 
And if you’re late or get lost 
It’s all ok because you are right where you need to be 
Seeing things you wouldn’t have seen otherwise 
And without the anxiety or an eye roll
