What in your life is inevitable?

Is anything truly promised or certain?

I’m not sure.

There have been many moments in my life where the most unexpected, terrible, traumatic, devastating things have happened without warning.

These have impacted other areas of my life and being.

I don’t know that anything is promised.

I’d like to believe certain things are inevitable based on scientific laws.

But what about universal truths? The things that always apply but are not fully tangible?

Many of us are so unique and our world views likely influence what we perceive as “truth”.

I have chosen to believe many optimistic and positive things in and about life which guide my views, interactions, and ideals.

Personally I believe the things which are inevitable are the things we put energy towards, whether intentionally or not, on a consistent basis.

Might it be inevitable then that someone who consistently works out achieves progress? Maybe not physically if not executed properly but maybe in their confidence or belief in themselves or in their social world?

Is it arguable then that anytime we are in motion we are inevitably progressing whether it is with lessons or successes?

I feel like this post is a bit tangential.

I started writing it by saying, growth is inevitable for those who reflect and apply.

But then I questioned that and realized it may not be true.

Because what if our reflection from an experience actually is a negative core belief and the application is that of distrust or solitude or shut down or some sort?

All this to say it really isn’t just about reflection and application but it’s also perception, honesty, courage to look deeper or ask for help or consider other possibilities…
