The Synchronicity of Life

It has been a funny couple of days. Now, I can look at it and laugh, realizing that truly all things are in Divine Order.

Synchronicities are those times when things happen which we think have no significant meaning, yet they do. They are the times in which the divine touches our lives with direction and guidance.

For three days now I have been trying to post my paintings on deviantart.com with no success. I have to upload one at a time, and go through a huge process, taking much more time than I want to invest in putting them online so that my friends at Women Who Run With Wolves can view them. Especially since most of them are already on my Facebook site. But, some of the women don't have Facebook accounts, so I decided that I would open up another Ning account, only to find out that Ning will be charging for accounts beginning July 20. So, no Ning account. I am too cheap to pay for such things!

So, I ended up doing what I originally thought of and put all my paintings onto my Facebook site, and that is that. In the process what was the lesson? To just trust in my instincts to begin with. A very valuable lesson especially for women, for we have been given such a powerful instinctual nature, and we do need to learn to move through our lives listening to that still small voice inside guiding and directing us for our highest good.

Right now I am sitting in he office, surrounded by our dogs, listening to the sound of a jack hammer as Marty takes off all the old mortar in the main bath so that we can lay new tile. As I listen to the sound of all that old stuff being chiseled away, I am thinking that it is a very good image of all the old stuff that we as humans, carry around with us every day. Old memories, Old ways of thinking, Old ways of reacting, Old patterns, Old junk. It seems the older we get, the more like mortar those unneeded aspects become, until it truly takes a spiritual jack hammer to remove it all. So on a day when I am just simply 'being' I am faced with the mortar of my life, left stuck to me after having the outward masks I used to wear removed.
The mortar has to come off also...even if it hurts and is scary, leaving me feeling vulnerable and exposed. It has to come off so that I will be free to really 'BE' who I came here to be.

So, I lay here in the office and visualize the breaking away of the old...
and think about the synchronistic way that God works to get us right where we need to be...to we can grow and see ourselves as the Light and Love we truly are.

SO, my question for you today is "What synchronicities are happening in your life, guiding you to truth, peace, love and joy?"
