Madness exists in all real things.
If there wasn't any amount of uncertainty in this life, everything would lack depth. Without a sense of depth everything is going to be a surface level examination of what's actually going on. If you stay on the surface, you aren't going to dive into the depths of your soul and find out what you are truly made of. There's a tendency these days to completely avoid going into ourselves to discover what is possible and to stay on the surface where everything is quick and easy. While convenient, this isn't where the magic lives. The magic is in living in the place where you can take a leap of faith and build your wings on the way down.
What if doubt crawls in? Embrace it.
When you consider it, we reside in a world completely full of chaos. Everything is going 1,000,000 miles a hour. Things are constantly falling apart and colliding together. It's a miracle that we are even able to function with everything happening around us. Some find their way early and others spend their entire lives searching for some type of deep meaning that will give them direction. We seek out direction, wisdom, and consume massive amounts of information to help us try to find some sense in of all this. This uncertainty can seduce us into trying to digest surface level pseudo-spirituality in order to help us understand ourselves. But without understanding context and avoiding diving into the depths we set ourselves up for disaster.
Surface level foundations never work - try building a home on wallpaper.
And that's really what all of this surface level stuff is when it boils down to it - wallpaper. It is what you put over something to cause it to look all pretty and nice. Life isn't all pretty and nice. Life is mucky. Life can be vicious. Life can test you and bring you to your knees whenever it feels like it. No matter how much you try to avoid specific things occurring, life acts as a pro dart thrower, hitting it's target every single time - regardless of how fast it's moving.
Give up thinking that you know everything and be constantly surpassed by what life has to offer you. Instead of presuming what the future is going to offer, let it do its thing and you will not be let down one bit. Dive into experiencing life at a foundational level and open yourself up to experiencing everything that it has to offer and you will find the true madness and excitement in all real things.
But you have to do the dirty work at the foundational level first.
So it's time to go to work. It's time to focus more on building the strong foundation and support structure of your life instead of focusing on the outer layers. Sure it's easier to focus on those outer layers because it's cheaper. But if you really want to make some changes, you have to start at your core.
What is life without risk? Just surviving.
