Choose one: [] yes [] no [] maybe
Ambiguity feels safe. A "maybe" feels more hopeful than a "no". But, even though it feels like possibility, it mostly closes the door on possibility.
Clarity, on the other hand, allows us to move forward. Even if it might hurt in the moment.
Being either here or there is better than being neither here nor there.
