Trust the universe

Boundless enthusiasm and energy seem to have sparked off a few wonderful co-incidences and happenings in one area of my life. How amazing it seems when things just fall into place and I wondered at the time what was going on. Now I feel it was my own energy and drive combined with being in the right place at the right time.

I worried that it seemed too “lucky” and that I could not rely on this alone. I also had to work carefully and plan things but with some kind of crazy lightheartedness and energy for what I was doing. It’s new and it’s a challenge and I feel I am thriving on it.

I worry a bit that it may be leading me down the wrong path – maybe something is deceiving me(my own ego for example)- and that it will all end in tears at bedtime! lol

However I have to enjoy the moment and watch everything unfold as it will, keep working hard and laughing no matter what. How often do I get the chance for this?

Maybe this is what happens when I trust the universe?

trust and faith – in love and justice.

FAITH

I want to write about faith,
about the way the moon rises
over cold snow, night after night,

faithful even as it fades from fullness,
slowly becoming that last curving and impossible
sliver of light before the final darkness.

But I have no faith myself
I refuse it even the smallest entry.

Let this then, my small poem,
like a new moon, slender and barely open,
be the first prayer that opens me to faith.

—David Whyte

that i am in the right place already and have things to do here and lessons to learn! Fine!

Once you become self-conscious, there is no end to it; once you start to doubt, there is no room for anything else.”
— Mignon McLaughlin

all will be well.

I guess it’s just another test and another lesson to learn.

As if I really need another reminder that I am strong and I can cope? I guess I do need another reminder about what really matters in life and about my own integrity.

All our progress is an unfolding, like a vegetable bud. You have first an instinct, then an opinion, then a knowledge as the plant has root, bud, and fruit. Trust the instinct to the end. though you can render no reason.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 – 1882)

You are screaming “TRUST!!” at me today with all your gifts!

When this happens it’s hard not to panic and feel that I and my life are heading for a disaster.

I have to learn to trust that “all will be well” and that whatever is coming I can cope.

When I stop quietly and take a look around at my life, as I sit here in my home with the people I love and who love me, I feel alot of love and maybe that has to be enough for the moment. I cannot control the future or change the past.

As the quote at the side of the page says tonight…”aim high in hope….”

I need to trust that my son’s new opportunity will take him more in the direction that the Universe wants him to go and that he wants to go. Trust that the Universe will take care of him and that he will be safe and happy in it’s arms.
