What's Next?

I find myself in an interesting place (in so many regards: with work, health, home, romance, family, friends, community, the world...) Part of me is caught thinking: I wonder what will happen next? And the other part of me thinks: It really doesn't matter. Half of me is curious, excited, scared, grateful, hopeful, nervous, optimistic & motivated. The other half is simply watching all of this without a reaction. Not worried, not nervous, not hopeful. Not optimistic nor pessimistic. The other half is simply there. Along for the ride. It doesn't matter which path is chosen. It knows it's all leading to the same place.

The photo above is me, as 1 year old. Where is that me? The me of 30 years ago?  Life has changed so much since then. Life looks & feels totally different now -- I look & feel totally different now. And life will change again. I will change again. Everything will change again. But what stays the same? There is something that never changes. I think the other half of me that is along for the ride knows this. It doesn't get surprised. It doesn't get disappointed. It doesn't feel a lose or gain. It just is. 
And this Is-ness is all there is.
