Acceptance of the Unknown

As I continuously reflect and write about the peace of accepting the unknown and releasing my need for control I look over to find that the clock that I have by my bed no longer shows me the time. It's a digital clock and for some reason or another, the numbers of the clock are blended into the LED background and now I have no sense of what time it is by looking at the clock. At first I was a bit startled and I unplugged my clock and plugged it back in with no luck in changing its state. My initial thought was to be frustrated as it was a fairly new clock and I thought to myself, "What good would a blank LED screen do for me?"

 But then I stopped.
  I took a breath.
 This was exactly it.
 This was the lesson.  

Ah, well played.
