Tune in and act on my intuition

“You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover is yourself.”
~Alan Alda

Was talking about our morning topic, “Not Sweating the Small Stuff.” He stated that his small stuff was worrying about his two brothers who are in jail… one is serving a life sentence. I was wowed by his story. I had to stop him, because I didn’t think it was small stuff, that is big stuff for a 10 year old! My heart went out to him. He has no communication with him and won’t be able to visit him until he turns 18. There was something that happened inside of me- that makes me want to go visit his brother. It may sound weird, but this keeps coming back to me and I don’t want to ignore it (even if it seems a little foreign and slightly scary).

... in attempting to act upon other goals – I left the intuition & the tuning in at home – would have come in handy nicely & saved me a lot of horror… lesson learned…

... knows that my intuition is impecable! I have to simply learn to be “present” & “mindful” so that I am trusting in that power within rather than the “fear” without (if that makes sense to anyone else – it does in my head… lol)!

But for some reason, I never started packing, just thinking about other ways to rearrange my classroom furniture. I even went to the class to try and picture how I’d like to set things up, it didn’t seem right (and I didn’t like the look and feel of the room). At any rate, the custodians started moving some teachers furniture today. The Assistant Principal notified me that I probably won’t be able to move. They may need Room 315 for another teacher, the floor is ruined in the class she was assigned to and they haven’t been able to effectively fix the leak (from the roof that’s causing the problem).

I’m fine with that… it’s less work for me and I can still give the room a different look by changing the placement of my desks and carpet area~

I had a feeling ;)

That there are a couple of people in my life that need some space. I read in one of my books that it’s better to be empathetic vs. sympathetic. With empathy, you lower a ladder down so another can climb out of the hole they’ve slipped into. When sympathetic you crawl down into the hole with them and may become stuck as well…

Well S.L. and J.J. I love you but I want you to come to the surface. I feel like I’ve been in a little rut myself, let’s talk in the light.

as I was driving home, I visualized someone from my past ‘out of the blue’ later on at home, I pulled out my gift wrapping supplies for Christmas and found a picture of him, dressed in the same black sweater I visualized while driving… I don’t know why he ‘came up’ but I see him happy, healthy, and whole
