while driving home today, i was slowly passing a car on the left when it hit a huge puddle and splashed my windshield. for a few protracted seconds i was completely blind, unable to see through the darkness or rush of water. holding my breath and gripping the steering wheel, i had no choice but to pilot forward and pray there were no obstructions in the road.
it scares me alittle when i feel like i've lost control over my surroundings. i'm a nonstop planner, so not being able to "expect the unexpected" is disconcerting. my husband constantly tells me that i can't possibly prepare for everything, that things happen regardless of how ready (or not) i am for them, and that sometimes i just need to let go. let go? me? at times i don't even know what that means.
but sometimes, letting go is the best advice i could have.
