Today’s post will be short and also a departure from the Seneca content I’ve recently been covering. Don’t worry, tomorrow’s video will continue on with the next Seneca discussion.

Now, I can’t exactly be fully up front with you about this matter, mainly because it is highly personal and doesn’t just involve myself. Yet, I still feel that I want to share at least what I’m experiencing and what I think that shows.

There is a cloud of turmoil that lurks above my personal life. It is uncertain whether or not it will pass in time or rain down upon me. It has caused much distress to people close to me. Yet, there’s nothing I can really do.

That’s my problem, normally with much of my life, I am responsible for the outcome in most instances. But in this one, I’m not involved in determining the outcome even though it will affect me.

I guess much of what I have been trying to do is mentally and emotionally prepare for the worst possible scenario. There is no doubt that it won’t have an impact regardless, but I don’t want to be so unprepared that it sends me into a spiral of negativity.

My hope is that if the worst is to happen, I’ll be as ready as I could possibly be (I’m not saying numb myself to the emotions, but able to process them in a healthy manner). With the end goal of developing my character and resolve by being able to handle complex and charged emotions with restraint and control.

I’m being vague on purpose, but if anyone has gone through something similar. What advice would you be able to give me?

Thanks again everyone
