I don’t ask.
I won’t ask.
And so I won’t get.
(Not by asking, anyway.)
Asking seems
far too confrontational for me.
(Said as an introvert.)
Asking seems far too presumptuous.
I do not wish to heap expectation upon you.
Or me.
It’s not that I’m insecure.
I am perfectly happy without.
On the contrary,
I have faith that I will get
what is best for me some other way.
Besides, what is best for me
is probably not
what I would be asking for,
if I were to ask.

🍌 The Unasked 🍌
You know, sometimes it seems that life would be easier if only we would ask for things. But a peculiar belief holds us back, as if asking were a form of cheating, questioning our faith in the universe. We find comfort in the notion that the universe already knows what is best for us and responds accordingly. Besides, who says life is meant to be easy?
🍌 The Silence of Unasked 🍌
In this silence, we don’t ask, and thus, we don’t receive. Not by asking, anyway. We avoid confrontation and presumption, fearing the weight of expectations that asking might bring upon us and others.
🍌 Introverted Hesitations 🍌
For us, as introverts, asking feels confrontational, an act that goes against the gentle flow of our being. We choose to navigate life’s currents with grace and subtlety.
🍌 The Faith in Not Asking 🍌
Yet, it’s not a matter of insecurity. We are content without asking, for we have faith that what is best for us will come in other ways. We trust in the unseen workings of the universe.
🍌 A Different Path 🍌
In our quiet trust, we understand that what is truly best for us may not align with what we would ask for if we were to ask. We surrender to the flow of life, open to alternative paths of fulfillment.
