It's always so interesting how we think to ourselves often or perhaps look outside at the grass that has just been washed by the rain and we say over and over again, "I just don't know about.."

I just don't know about this rain or

I just don't know about this weather

I just don't know about the clouds in the sky or that

little chocolate chip we stepped on as we traveled across the floor

or that half finished book or that

meeting we had earlier in the day or 

the decision we made to try that new thing

I just don't know. We do though. I think we do know

perhaps that phrase is just yet another way for us to be unsure without being too sure

A little safety net that slips beneath our feet like

yellow rubber boots that glide through the puddles unscathed

we know what we know 

and in faith and love and in trust and hope

rest assured the "I don't knows" are just little reminders

that we are practicing the ultimate trust and guiding

where love seems to drift

sometimes it doesn't seem plausible to others 

or we hide beneath the weeds of "I don't know" so as to not face

the blossoms of knowing

so you "do know" even if you feel like you

"do not know"

and love always leads the way

and finds the place of knowing.
