Before you read any further – if you haven’t read “Trust Versus Worry” – go back and read that – then you will ‘get’ this, the rest of the story.
One must be really careful what they ask for because, as long as one’s intention is truly clear, things begin happening so fast they can make your head spin!
Why am I saying all this? Well here’s what happened since I chose to change my mind and step out of the victim space. This past few weeks have absolutely flown by. Mid September Harry and I jumped on the “Trust” wagon and allowed Spirit to guide us on an amazing journey. We began by packing up the car and taking off for the nearest beach, which just happens to be, Rehoboth, Delaware. The last thing that I put into the car was my copy of Soul Talking (my book that is still waiting to be published ) I was not sure why I made a point of including that in our items to be packed, but that would soon no longer be a mystery to me.
We took a different route to the beach than we normally take and as we approached a certain intersection I found myself directing Harry to “turn right!” Harry generally likes to humor me and I thank God he did this particular time. We found ourselves in this neat little township of Milton. As we drove by the Lions Club I happened to notice that the next week they would be having a “Spaghetti Dinner”.
After a short stop at the local Coffee House, we took ourselves on a wander around this lovely little town. At one point Harry spotted a waterfall in the distance and we sauntered along a path that took us in the direction of the waterfall. As we approached the water I got this amazingly, overwhelming feeling of “deja-vu”! I also got this emotional wave and tears flowed and all I knew is that I felt like I was coming home. I turned to Harry and said,”This is where we are supposed to be!” We walked on and found ourselves in this park and there, seated on one of the park benches was John Milton, the poet. I thought about my poetry book, Soul Talking, that I had been so careful to bring with us on our journey. The most significant thing about all of this is the feelings that we both were experiencing.
We traveled onto the beach and took the next few hours to just soak in the sun and contemplate the feelings we were having regarding our diversion through Milton. Harry and I were deep in thoughts about what was going on in our lives and although it was a magnificent day we allowed it to slide by into the early evening when we were beginning to actually feel a little chill. We gathered all our goodies together, took them to the car,then sauntered along the streets of Rehoboth until we spied a special restaurant that had a menu that appealed to both of us.
By the time we had finished our meal and spent some time with the owner of the restaurant we had, pretty well, decided that we wanted to work there. Only a few days later we confirmed this with the owner and on that same day we realized that we needed to get a new home closer to our jobs. Then I remembered the “Spaghetti Dinner” at the Lions Club in Milton.
That evening we sauntered into the Lions Club an Milton and introduced ourselves to the gathered throng and let them know that we need to find a new place to live. By 9pm on that very evening, we met our new landlords and essentially had an agreement on our new home.
One week later we began our new jobs and two weeks later the movers came and moved our home from Annapolis, Maryland to Milton, Delaware. Meanwhile our landlords were kind enough to allow us to stay in our “new home” before we actually made the move and they did not charge us for that.
So much has happened since we both made the decision to change our attitude and trust in the graciousness of the Universe. Listen folks, I am totally aware that what we have done is, to many, is extreme and unusual but it has just begun a whole new life for us and we are loving it, with all the turns and twists…………………………….watch this space!
Keep tuned in!
