On Living with Uncertainty // It's okay to not have an answer.

- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
- Something I’ve been working through lately is this feeling of uncertainty and actively living with it. I’ve taken and documented a lot of risks over the past few years and they’re all catching up with me a little bit. I work for myself, and with that comes an absurd amount of uncertainty. Will my company even still be here this time next year? I can’t speak to what the future holds, the beauty of life is that it’s constantly changing and throwing you curveballs. I’ve said before, life doesn’t pause for laughter. In the weight of uncertainty, you can just want to break down and stop but that’s the thing about life -- even if you stop, it will keep going without you. What helps me to keep going in this years-long phase of uncertainty that I seem to find myself in is a simple phrase: I don’t know. #digitalstoryteller #Texas

Are you serious with this content? We are not worthy! Uncertainty breeds humility. Keep being kind to yourself through the process. This is art at it's purest. Thank you for this.
@O.G. Rumi She's seriously a problem.
Closed captions should be up tomorrow, sorry in advance. Thank you for stopping by and watching! If you're new, consider subscribing. This short was filmed on The San Antonio River Walk. Music featured is from Epidemic Sound share.epidemicsound.com/s8W7c
So beautifully raw & truthful. Spoke directly to my soul.
This is such a peaceful video!!!
1. Girl your hair is getting so long and full! Better get it! 💁🏾♀️2. My dad always told me growing up that “smart people say ‘I don’t know’”. 👍🏾3. I really liked this balance of b-roll+voiceover and a-roll. 🙌🏾4. This video is helpful, not in the sense of giving answers, but helpful in the sense of showing shared sentiments. ❤️
Freedom comes with incertainity, just trust and enjoy the process. You are fine, we are all fine.
My journal just caught hell from me because I’m feeling lost, restless, and bored and I want all of the answers and yeses to my dreams and desires now. I also know better so I’m trying not to dwell in these feelings. This video just soothed some of the anxiety I’ve been experiencing. Thank you for sharing!
Yay I'm so glad!
As a woman with an MBA struggling with 6 months of unemployment I cannot feel this video harder. I'm leaning hard on my resources and loved ones. Trying to keep the faith alive that the right job is out there for me. Then the depression kicks in and showering or washing a single dish becomes a miracle. *sigh* Gotta hang in there to get to the other side. This is temporary - not my permanent life.
Oh man, I am sending nothing but positive internet vibes your way! Yes, this is temporary. Please believe that.
Victoria Insley how are you doing now? One thing someone once told me was it will take awhile to recover and accept that six months it’s just settling in. I hope you have recovered as you seem like an intelligent woman
“Trying with the obvious uncertainty”, Hallease thank you for making this. These words mean a lot to me as a freshman in college who’s wondering if the stress of exams in a major I’m unsure about is even worth it ! Sometimes i miss how sure of my self I was when I had a clear goal of college. Now that I’m here for the first time in my life I’m completely unsure of my future, but I am trying. Thank you for reminding me that that matters too.
College is one of the best "uncertain" times. You have the space to find yourself and lose yourself again. You'll do great!
I am so in love with your entire vibe and essence. That's the energy I strive to have in my life. Your videos always end with giving me that calm reassurance. Thank you.
This spoke to me on a massive scale...between ce'st la vie and je ne sais quoi, life happeneds, I guess. Lots of unknowns___blanks spaces in life kinda makes like____whatever it'll be if only you can do what you can to the best of your ability.
🦋just lost my job meer hours ago. Very sad. So thx 4 the video. I will keep trying🦋
Bravo, Hallease! Accepting that i don't know and living in the moment has been my constant lesson in the 20's.
Oh man, so glad my 20s are almost over
Digital storytelling is definitelya strength of yours! It inspires me to watch your process . Thank you for continuing to share with us. Here’s to 100k!
My heart needed this video today...Thank you for the message and the beautiful visual of the river walk.
I love this!! Please don't ever stop making content. I felt every part of this.
🤎🤎🤎
Love this but please stop making content if it feels right.
Words cannot express, how on time this message was for me! I’m trying....I’m worthy.....I’m just being the most authentic me unapologetically! This message was so heartfelt, pure and telling of your talents and your ability to articulate thoughts others are afraid to say! Keep speaking your truth and sharing your craft.
"I don't think the joy in living comes from knowing or not knowing. I think it comes from just trying." ~Hallease
Living with uncertainty...is natural. Since life does keep moving forward I found by trying, growing & learning...I am finding joy in each season of my life. At 49, I look back at much of my life I thought made me who I am. I woke up asking is that really you girl? Simple answer "I don't know" and deeper answer " I don't know". I'm on a new journey and I don't know where it's going to take me, but I sure am going to take all my mistakes, failures and lessons learned and "Rock" my next 50 years. Thank you for sharing 🌻
This video is now one of my favs. ❤ I've been a silent admirer of your work for a while, but this right here...I had to speak on. You are so good at what you do! ...not to mention how well you convey your thoughts in such a relatable way. Imma have to watch this a few more times ma'am.
This video came at the perfect time for me. I’ve been feeling the same way lately. I’m a freelancer and some things and clients don’t work out. And when people ask me what the hell I’m doing, I always feel like I have to give them this finite answer when in reality I don’t know for sure what will happen in the next years. I just try my best and see what happens. It’s okay to not know and I’m glad someone can relate to that feeling of uncertainty but being able to accept that.
This video is definitely helpful. When I tell you I JUST came from therapy and ended with how uncomfortable I feel in myself and in my life right now. And unsettled. Because I have a lot of “idk’s” circling me. This was needed. It’s okay to live in uncertainty. In fact that’s all we’re doing. Anyway. Thank you for this video.
Glad this was helpful for you!
Thought provoking video, thanks for sharing.
We meet again lol
Victory Begins in the Garden lol I guess we’re both part of Hallease’s #notificationgang
“The more you learn and know, the more your realize how much you don’t know.” If this isn’t the Truth!!!!
I felt this in my soul.
The more knowledge I gain the more questions I have.
Amazing content.
I appreciate hearing these thoughts on uncertainty! I've been on my own journey to accepting that I can't know everything. Growing up, everything from church to school to home felt like I needed to be certain of everything in order to measure up. I read a book called Learning to Walk to in the Dark by Barbara Brown Taylor that was a refreshing embrace of mystery within the Christian faith. Trying to be certain stressed my out, made me controlling. Love your words about trying being what we enjoy in life.
OMG someone at the coworking space was just talking to me about her #IssaSign
This one definitely resonates. I'll be graduating college in May and I'm so tired of the questions about what my plans will be after I graduate. In the past I would always come up with some elaborate answer to please people, but now I'm finding comfort in saying I don't know. Thank you.
You will remain successful.
At almost 40, aiming at several things and not yet hitting targets....yeah. We'll keep going, though 😉 great video.
ABSOLUTELY Loved this 5 minute gem of inspiration and I needed it today. Thank you!
"I don't know" is fastly becoming a statement I regularly use lol. You are so right. The older I get the more I realize...I really dont know much of anything lol. And it can be frustrating. Uncertainty is a difficult place to be. For me, 2020 is definitely the year where I'm learning to let go and just go with it. I dont know much but I will definitely try and put myself out there to learn and grown in this phase of my life.
Yes. This is what life is about! Uncertainty. We can put so much into anything we want, and never know for sure whether it’ll have success. I totally feel and relate to this video.
YOU! WHO ARE YOU!? WHO SENT YOU!? I DONT KNOW!!!! But the only thing I do know is that the world NEEDS more of YOU! This right here is a message. It really hit deep and came right on time. YOU are a blessing. And I thank you 🙏🏾.
I am in the "I don't know" phase. And it can be a struggle especially for Type A personalities like myself. So what I am finding myself saying is...I am trusting God with my now, and believing him for my next. Tfs
Oh I love that!
Same..*SIGH*
Thankful for this video and your comment🤗🤗
There's something very tranquil about your videos. I always look forward to them. ✨🙏🏾💕
Gosh, I wish videos like this were shareable on IG. This is truly beautiful. Thank you for this wonderful share.
There’s so many things we don’t know, and I’m learning to be okay with "I don’t know" being an answer. Life in a pandemic as a recent unemployed college grad is uncertain and one giant and overwhelming I Don’t Know but this soothed my soul. Thank you for this!
Refreshingly organic Empress 👌🏾🧘🏽♀️❤
You are amazingly talented!!! This gave me life today!
Thank you thank you thank you ❤
This is definitely needed! I needed this. I think most people need this especially during times of COVID. I'm grateful!
Poetic! I'm so glad I found you here. Thank you.
I am now terribly scared of these social sites algorithms. How do they know what you need before you even know you need. Thanks for this video Hallease, I needed this and RUclips knew it ❤️.
This Will Live Forever.
I’ve made some screw ups that have become habitual these past few years, and trying to pull out of it is hard. This was the deep breath and reassurance that I didn’t know I needed. Thank you
You're probably the best video editor out there, you really know how to put things together, I hope the best for your channel!
This was so necessary. For me. Thank you. Someone in the comments referred to this as “art as it’s purest.” Could not agree more. Thank you, Hallease. Thank you.
You are such a great storyteller. I love seeing the different parts of San Antonio while you narrate. Thanks for such great content!
Everything about your channel is wholesome and wonderful. I look forward to everything you bring in the future. Especially the plant collection! :P
Young BEAUTIFUL QUEEN!!! You are DA BOMB!!!💣💣💣...I SOOOO LOVE YOU and what you bring to this platform!!! You do it with class, transparency, creativity and MUCH TALENT!!! We need MORE PEOPLE like you around!!! I just RECENTLY found you about a month ago...THANKS for SHARING!!! And NEVER GIVE UP!!!🙌🙌🙌💜💜💜
Here because Evelyn sent me... staying because of YOU. 💜
Welcome!
Like Hallease's video before watching because I know this content will be fire. Amazing visuals and message ❤️✌🏿❤️
Was directed over here by Evelyn From the Internets and I'm so thankful for that. An instant Subscribe from me. I aspire to make content like this. Thank you for creating. This was calming and centering. :)
This video was soooooo soothing omg....beautiful all around. Beautiful soul, music, visuals and voice.
W O W! What a great inspiration. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This is one of the things I said I can’t stand in my life it’s been a pattern...usually things turn out fine. Uncertainty is scary but a part of living... thanks Hallease
So I have been on a bit of a Hallease kick these past few days and I think this is my favorite video of hers. I don’t know perhaps it is relatability of the content whilst immersing us in this surreal experience. Absolutely brilliant. That 100k be coming, and then some more!
**tears** Thank you so much for this. Gosh... I feel like I was raised to think that "I don't know" means anti-faith/cursing life (aka, a taboo phrase, as you mentioned). But, no. It is a reality, but I am trying. And Trying is okay. I think Star Wars Yoda made "trying" a bad word or something (do or do not, there is no try) **rolls eyes**. Thank you for reminding me that "I don't know" is okay. I've even learned this in my graduate schooling, and it has helped in that setting too. I need to add this reminder to my personal life as well. Thank you.
Me reading your comment and realizing that Yoda was indeed problematic 🤯
Thank you! I can always appreciate the rawness of your vids. Friend in my head! ❤️
Cinematography's definition
your videos are SO POWERFUL. this could not have come at a better time
You are wonderful! So pure and transparent. Your beautiful soul is worthy of a million subscribers!!! They are people out there who emotional and mental health would be soothed by the honesty about living and going thru this earthly journey we all struggle with. I hope they find you. Please continue to do the work, keep manifesting and allowing us to share it with you. You are appreciated.😍
Ma'am, you are out here impacting lives with your art. Thank you. Also if I needed video production, I'd hire you off the strength of this video.
I LOVE THIS. I needed this right now, for me. Thank you. Peace.
I love your videos so much. Whether it’s watching/listening to them in the mornings getting ready for work, snuggled up in bed on chill weekends, on shitty days (like today 😔), on the bus... wherever, whenever just know I really appreciate you and your art. Thank you 🙏🏿
Thank you so much!
Your voice is so soothing to the soul! Your messages are empowering!
Honestly loved this video I really needed to hear this because I'm going through a career change Also it's at a weird time in my life So I truly thank you for this video because it was really helpful
Wow! This totally resonates. Currently in this position & your video just emboldened me, reinforcing my thoughts that is ok not to know how or when or if....
Damn! Not having any idea doesn't feel so bad after all. We can't control the outcomes or decide. We are just here to be. And maintain positivity in our uncertainty. Thanks Hallease! 🙏
Thank you Hallese. Hittin us with the gems again 👌🏾
OMG. The topic of this video. And just a week ago, a friend talk to me about that river in San Antonio and right away, I told him about you and your videos knowing that you live in that city. Anyway. Love, the topic, the mood, the edition, and yes, do it for you. Cause if you need it, millions of people need it to. And it might seem full of doubts and uncertainty, but it is full of optimism around the future. Thanks, Hallease. Keep up with your awesome creativity.
Thank you for this it was beautiful and so relatable. I wish you nothing but success in your life!!
🤎🤎🤎🤎
Beautiful nature shots even the blue shoes in the grass.
Why are you in my head! From the storytelling, cinematic and authenticity. You can talk about paint drying and I’ll be here for it. I’m asking for God’s guidance because I’ve been in a period of uncertainty. Thank you for be true for I relate to this!!!
This made me emotional... Thank you, I really love this type of content. Very helpful and inspiring.
This is calming & cathartic. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this. This brought me so much peace. There are so many things that are uncertain in my life right now and it tends to cause a lot of worries and overthinking but you’re so right. There’s absolutely no way we can plan everything in life. And even if we do there’s really no saying that it will turn out the way we want it to
Everything about this video was so real and beautiful, really struck a cord with me. Even though I’m just now seeing your video, you’ve made 100k! New sub ❤
🥰 I needed this so much. Thank you for giving this kind of content to the internet ✌🏻
Getting me all emotional this early in the morning, smh. Great video!
just found your channel through evelyn and i'm in love already! your voice is so soothing and I love what you said about how life's joys aren't found in knowing, but in trying. accepting that I don't know what comes next and opening myself to the experience of life each day and in each moment has brought me so much more joy than trying to solve all my uncertainties and find solutions to my problems. life is about living so let's live it!
So much poetry in this! You're so talented!
i really love the new space.
🙋🏿♀️Thank you!
Just found you today; I guess I was clinking uninterested in everything else that youtube was feeding me, and they finally recommended someone interesting.
Really high quality. RUclips is hardly good enough for this video. This feels like spike Lee or something
This is so refreshing. Thank you for sharing ❤️🤗.
This is inspiring me to welcome in uncertainty. How perfect of a video for the present times.
If I had known where the world would be only a month after posting this video...
I felt this In my heart. Thank you 🙏🏾🦋
Wow your amazing - you really let me know that everything will be ok and This filmmaking journey will be fine 😩🙏🏿
Honey, thank you for being so gracious with your introspection. You are beyond relatable for me- a 29 year old, introverted, creative, chocolate-complected, San Antonian female. I could go on, but in short, Thank you for being you and for helping to affirm my personhood when I doubt it, so often. Much love.
Aye! 210 por vida!
Hands down favorite RUclipsr
I found this simultaneously disturbing, inspiring and comforting. Since I have have always attached shame to the feeling and fact of, "I don't know." It feels like I should know and I have a very hard time accepting that, well, "I don't know." I don't know my purpose, I have interest in many things and I don't know what I will do next. I do know, that I'm not alone and am slowly accepting that it's okay to fail, or to not know but most importantly I'll be ok. Thanks Hallese.
Also you have the most calming and reassuring voice.
You are super inspiring. I totally see myself in you. I love your gentle spirit. Thanks for this content!! It's truly remarkable.
I really needed this video and the beautiful message you conveyed. From the bottom of my heart, thank you
I LOVE THIS VIDEO. THANK YOU. ( caps intended)
Just discovered you and wow! Your content is so refreshing and absolutely love your vibe. Keep up the good work, your talent is truly amazing 😊
Well said, this was so powerful. Thank you.
