How often have we asked that as we experience life changes? We can see the ending. What about the new beginning? There are times when the ending seems catastrophic and we are left feeling devastated. Sometimes we exhale a sigh of relief that the ordeal is over. Relationships end whether friendships, marriages, business, relatives, organizations. We know that unless there is an ending, the beginning next stage does not happen. We need to clean out the old furniture to make room for the new furniture that will better suit and serve us.
Even though I do not know the initial outcome, one of my business opportunities will be ending. At first, I got wigged out because of the loss of income. I saw those threads take me right back to growing up in poverty. I skipped all those other times when I did land on my feet and found another position, right on time with the right amount of money. Yet, as if on a zip line, back I go to ancient history. All those years of growth and honing my skills, yet still zoom in to that fear.
After the initial fear, I hear the whispers, “Oh ye of little faith!” Where is my faith at this moment? It looks like I just sailed right past those successes. Taking time to breathe and find the silver lining. I called my friend about this. It was the sweetest moment when she said it is like a kiss from God for me to move onto the next opportunity as I have experienced a lot of stress in this position. 
So what is next? I am unsure. At these times, it would be lovely to have a magic mirror or a working crystal ball to let me peer into the future to see what it looks like. Alas, doesn’t happen that way. Of course, we can ask the intuitive and card readers to give us a glimpse. However, those potential outcomes can change as circumstances change and we change our own minds.
So what’s next? Keeping faith that whatever it is will be better than I can imagine. That all will be okay. I also need to keep in mind, instead of fretting and being full of angst about it, that I can take a step or two back to evaluate, rest and co-create the next steps along the way. I can respond instead of react. There is a gift in there.
