if there's one thing life has taught me time and time again, it's that things rarely go to plan. and if there's a second thing life has taught me, it's that when i kick and scream and resist what has happened, i just end up generating more pain for myself.⁣
⁣
... okay and if there's a THIRD thing life has taught me, it's that more often than not, after a little time and space and acceptance, i manage to find a lot of beauty and learnings and unexpectedly wonderful things that would not have otherwise existed if things had gone according to my original (and completely made up) plan.⁣
⁣
i'm not trying to preach toxic positivity here--there's no spinning that so many of life's events are just unbearably unfair and painful and heartbreaking. but if this is how the cards have fallen, how much energy might we waste fruitlessly resisting what has come to pass and wishing it away? the more i have learned to surrender to the unfolding of things, allowing myself to feel that pain and heartache fully, while trying to find a way to move forward WITH it, as opposed to living in a perpetual state of resistance/anger/sadness/resentment, the more i have found some level of peace, and the more i have been able to see the beauty that does still exist in every moment. this of course doesn't mean we passively accept the way things are--if there is something to be DONE about things, we should by all means DO it!! but there's definitely something to be gained by learning to differentiate between the times where we can do something about it and the times we can't.⁣
⁣
so now, when life laughs at my little human plans and throws something else my way, i try to soften. i honor my pain, and hold out hope that there may someday be beauty and growth and magic born from this very moment. who am i to presume to know the way things *should* go.⁣
⁣
this is what my new song, “another way”, is all about. i hope it resonates with you somehow.

Another Way Lyrics

How would you know if what you’re needing
Isn’t something you’re not seeing
What if you lost the chance to be what you could be

How would you know that something better
Wasn’t waiting for bad weather
To soak its seeds, to give you everything you need

We have a habit of
Thinking we know the way it goes
Then it goes another way
I know the latter is not a laughing matter
But it seems we’d be crazy not to think
That maybe this could be
Exactly what should be

How would you know if someone wiser
Wasn’t forging in these fires
What if you’d washed away what could’ve set you free

How would you know if you’ve mistaken
When your heart is bruised and aching
For a bad thing when all you needed was to bleed

We have a habit of
Thinking we know the way it goes
Then it goes another way
I know the latter is not a laughing matter
But it seems we’d be crazy not to think
That maybe this could be
Exactly what should be

What if we choose that we’ll let go of
All the things we’ve no control of
What if we learn to love whatever comes to be
