Trust Your Feet / by Alexander Lyadov

Sometimes the future looks something like this photo.

The road ahead seems straight — no congestion, no obstacles.

Yet it's immediately clear that the journey won't be an easy one.

It's all about the context. Ahead lies rain, a thunderstorm, a cyclone.

Discomfort is guaranteed. There may even be a threat to life.

And yet it's impossible not to marvel at the magnificence of the elements.

What a contrast — the reliability of the earth and the unpredictability of the sky.

Even as they collide, each remains true to its own nature.

That's why, even in total darkness, your feet will find the way by touch.

However cold or frightened you are, the body can keep moving forward.

Then the weather will change, and the sun will wink through the clouds.

Nothing in this world lasts forever. Everything exhausts itself in the end.

You only need to remind yourself more often:

"I Am."

Then even at the heart of Chaos, you can find beauty worth marveling at.

​Sincerely yours,​

​-Alexander​
