In the Thicket
A thicket is the dense part of a forest. If we were to apply it to life, a thicket represents a process of change, not an event.
Do you ever have days, weeks, months or years where you can’t seem to see beyond the thicket of your situation(s)? No matter which way you turn to try to gain direction, you find yourself going in circles? The more you try to resolve a situation, the more you find yourself beyond knee-deep and becoming waist-deep in the thicket. You ask yourself, “How did I get here? How do I get out of this?”
Frustration, confusion and a sense of hopelessness often accompany a person in this scenario. Maybe your thicket is a bad marriage or relationship, a job you absolutely hate, lingering bitterness towards a person or situation, or financial stress. Perhaps you believe any or all attempts have been made to try to get yourself out of the thicket, but nothing seems to work.
You have taken others’ advice, come up with your own ideas, or ignored the situation and hoped it would just go away. But nothing has worked. What is a person to do?
