They say when you know exactly what’s going to happen, you rarely look forward to it. That’s why we show up late for meetings or appointments, we dread routines, and there’s hardly any anticipation for school or work. The element of certainty makes anything mundane. I guess what “joey” said about uncertainty being the thrill of any experience is true.

Schooled and trained in the area of finance, I never thought I was going to get into a different industry. Research and product development. What was I to know? First, I had nothing to show for it. Clueless.

Nike’s swoosh says “just do it” So I did. Never mind how uncertain the days to follow are. Found solace in the thrill. But to begin with, wasn’t exactly that, that got me here?

The thrill of uncertainty. But for how long? Maybe not long enough.

Until then, I’ll just have to cross my fingers, maybe then, uncertainty will find me again.
