Have you ever felt lost in life and in that moment of darkness and insecurity, found a sign that leads you to your answer.
We often say “life has a way of working itself out” or “when one door closes, another opens” and so on. Pointing therefore to a force that opens doors and suggests things along the way. If only we were quiet enough to listen.
A friend of mine recently offered me a business proposition in a hair salon. I was still thinking about it. Something did not sit well with me but I could not put a finger on it. In a train journey, I struck up a conversation with a fellow passenger who happened to talk about business in hair salons. The conversation and the details are not relevant. But the randomness of this conversation in the train is. Should I call this coincidence or was it a hand of God.
The poem “Footsteps in the sand” jumps to mind. I think people life works in different ways. Sometimes it carries you in the darkest hour and sometimes it simply gives you a sign.
I think life does give us all signs and life give us all opportunities. We all get them. It is what we do with those opportunities that determines the course of our life. Will we remain unconscious beings or will we awaken to the force that guides us.
