Play it Cool

"The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed." - Carl Jung (1875 - 1961)

Uncertainty fills my mind and occupies my thoughts. Deep down I know exactly what it is I want. I'm just afraid to bring it to the surface and admit it openly. Does this mean I'm in a state of denial?

I know that my life is currently in a state of liminality. I am caught between critical life stages. This is neither good nor bad. I find it rather calming to know that I do not have to face an inevitable change just yet.

When I do end up having to face them, there are certain boundaries I need to bend and push in order to move forward with my life. Experience has taught me that the best changes in my life have come when I've leapt forward without thinking things through. This time, however, it is different. I want to draw from my experiences, but I do not want to be bound by them.

I have to play it cool. When the time is right, the want will fulfill the need.
