A Frame of Mind

So much about our world is in how we perceive it.  And I think my own perception has been a bit off lately.

I find myself in a little of a funk, not all the time, and not even most of the time.  But, I’m not at my most positive lately.  This is despite the fact that there are some very good, even some wonderful things happening in my life right now.  I have found my self re-interpreting what people say a bit more.  I notice a little less certainty in my thought.  I find my long term vision a bit less grand.  

Now, the good news is that I at least see this happening, so that I cant make some corrections.  It is certainly fine to experience all sorts of emotional states.  After all, if everything was happy and bright, how would we even know what we want?  The down and the negative can provide contrast for us to move forward.  It can also give us some time to ponder.  

What hit me hardest in this little self examination of mine, is the realization that I am approaching the one year anniversaries of some sad times in my life, namely the birthday and death day of my mother, all rolled up into a few weeks.  I think that has been my framework lately, the sad days from last year.  Even without consciously being aware of what was happening, my soul, my mind, all remembering last year at this time.  

So, even by writing this, I can feel some of the continued healing and move forward with a more positive view of the word and all of the wonderful blessings I have been experiencing lately, despite the not so positive framework I have found myself in.

Synchronicity Everywhere

As I’ve mentioned, I think synchronicity is a sign that things are moving in the right direction, or more specifically, towards the life that you desire.  I believe it is the case even if the synchronicities aren’t quite making sense.  If you are experiencing them, and by them, I mean positive coincidences, use them as signs of encouragement.  Worry about the meaning later.

Within the last week, I have had synchronistic experiences related to: music, psychics, song writing, names, love, family, friends, birthdays, almonds, allergies, grocery stores, Sweden, travel, and emails.  Maybe there are even more that I haven’t recognized. None on the list, taken by themselves has much meaning.  But the fact that they are occurring with such regularity right now, causes me to believe that there are great things in store.  I shall keep you posted.

Synchronicity and the Grocery Store

Last Sunday I went to the grocery store, thought of a friend I haven’t heard from in a few weeks, then checked my email and guess what, an email from him.  I read the email and it turns out we had been doing some similar things without knowing it that very day and for the past three weeks, including meeting people with the same names.  He also lives over 4,000 miles away. It was a synchronicity triple play.  I

believe synchronicity is a sign that you are moving in the right direction. Have you had any synchronistic moments lately?

How Do I Stay Away From Politics?

Hmmm…. I just wrote what I thought to be a lovely posting about the joys of politics and the preparation for the peaceful transfer of power from one US President to the next.  Even mentioning that there is something to find joy in regardless of your candidate or political party.  And, this is all true.  However, once I wrote the post, my computer did some sort of ditzy freeze, and I lost everything.  So, my friends and my readers, this is the short version.  The original post was not meant to be.  However, finding joy and happiness is always meant to be.  Enjoy your life as we move out of this election season in the United States.  There is a feeling of coming together in the air, and there is always goodness to find in this universe we call home.
