Be Uncertain

A volatile state of Uncertainty. Yet Uncertainty is nourishing. Ever-expanding. Ever-creating.
The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle: each particle of the physical world vibrates out of the vacuum from boundless, unlocalized, mere probability.

Uncertainty could be mother-like, and full of grace. Yet it makes us panicky, reactionary, eager to blame.

Try this, friend. Use another name. Don't call it "Uncertainty," but "Possibility." Taste the infinite possibility of holy bewilderment.

In a state of wonder the apple bud bursts, not knowing, "Will there be sunshine or rain?" Delicate petals unfold the inexorable geometry of the void, but no one can solve this broken symmetry of Zero.

In a state of wonder the cloud unveils a moon, whether she is full or new. Just so the miracle in the egg, blindly muscling a golden path through cracks in darkness.

Uncertainty, maturing into Wonder, dissolves fear. All we have is presence. We can listen. We don't need to know. Now be very quiet. Breathe down into the heart of possibility. Way will open.
