Limbo
Sara Wheeler argues that, as we're propelled into an increasingly uncertain future, learning to accept a kind of 'limbo' may be a useful tool.
Sara Wheeler reflects on the concept of limbo as a way of helping us deal with current uncertainties but she recognizes this will not be easy.
'Limbo is a borderless, undefined, in-between state that is neither one thing nor the other and therefore it is hard to label and harder to accept.'
She believes though that an acceptance of unknowability may be increasingly important since 'the rules and certainties on which we built our lives have altered beyond all recognition.'
