it's going to be ok

sometimes, we like uncertainty, the thrill of not knowing what will happen.

many other times, we just want to know it's going to be ok.

we'd like to know certain risky decisions, which could turn out really badly, will turn out the way we hope they will. we'd like to know if our dire situations might turn around in the foreseeable future, because we just can't take it anymore.

of course, no one will know for sure. the darkest clouds part away for blue skies without warning. conversely, even in the smoothest sailing, a freak storm is just around the next corner.

so perhaps, worry less about how it will turn out, and rather, strengthen the determination to endure the dark times.

the end of a long, dark road, is either light or death. but, eventually, they all end.
