The Undefined Path

This is a post that’s a little different than usual – short and sharp, and hopefully leaves you want to read more. 

Over the last several months I’ve been contemplating my next steps, hoping to do more writing and creating. A few weeks ago I resigned from my work in a non-for-profit and am now in the process of figuring out. Many people ask me what’s next and the simple answer is I don’t know, and sometimes it’s nice not to know. 

The unknown is scary and intimidating but also exciting and energising.

I have several ideas brewing and I’ve started working on several projects (some community, creative, or a combination). I promise to share when anything concrete comes to fruition. 

Meanwhile, I wanted to share a little of how it feels to be in this space, so here is the first stanza of a new poem (I wrote especially for you):

The path may not 

reveal itself

upon my calling,

it may keep winding 

by its own tune.

P.S. I do not usually share my poems fully because I hope to publish them somewhere beyond this blog. If you want to read or see more, head to my socials (@LielKBridgford), follow me, and tell a friend.

Until next time,
