Have you ever contemplated those amazing moments in life when you were in the right place at the right time. Moments that blazed new trails in your lifes journey. Lets start by listing memorable moments in time that may have been put on the back shelf, moments that helped shape your life.
My moments that come to mind in this now moment are:
- my brothers name being Gerry Keeling which was the name of the quarterback for the Calgary Stampeders football team back when we were young teenagers. The phone rings and asks for Gerry Keeling. My girlfriend and I had somehow cornered my brother in the closet and were holding the door shut on him. So I said, he is locked in the closet at the moment and took a name and number for Gerry to call back once we let him out of the closet. This memory has me wondering in this moment if my brother ever suffered from fears of the dark or small places because of this. Any ways, turned out the guy was looking for the football player.... LOL This phone call led to many more - to me though, not my brother. Turned out to be a teen my age. We had many wonderful conversations about WHY salt was called salt and not pepper. He told me to ask the question HOW instead. This got me through much of the turmoil of the day. What was his name... He eventually came to visit me. That is another story in itself. I reacted poorly when I saw him - only because it was an unexpected surprise to find out that he was black. We drifted apart after that episode. I felt foolish and embarrassed because he had told me to ask a friend of his that went to my school about him. All the guy said was that he had black curly hair. I felt used. I can't imagine how the guy felt. I hope it didn't affect him and his life.
- then there was the time in Quesnel when I was looking for a job. I applied at the drug store and got the job, not realizing that a position had become available. I had beat the crowd that was soon to appear.
- I often tell others the stories of asking for a parking space. One day, I arrived at my destination and had to go around the block 3 times before I found a parking space. As I went into the medical building, there in the elevator was the doctor that I had wanted to magically run into to give him some paperwork. AHHHhh! I was too early was I, thank you universe.
- Then there was the experience of stretching time. I was visiting with another practitioner. We did healing sessions on each other and then had lunch. From her place we were catching the bus to go to the Mask Making workshop together. We left late, then missed a bus. We chose to ask the universe to stretch time. We continued merrily on our way, getting to our destination early. We have no idea how we made it, it logically seemed impossible.
- When I was residing at a Transition (Safe) House, I drove back from a Unity Church where the Sunday service had been directed directly at me it seemed, and each song on the radio was powerful healing and had me shedding my tears. I felt renewed and cleansed. I remember deciding to listen to one more song when I had arrived at my destination - the magic was over, that next song had nothing to do with anything.
- My most favorite volunteer work was at the Hospital Emergency Room. It did not matter if I visited one patient or saw everyone during my shift. I was free to follow my intition, to follow my NOSE, and let it lead me to be in the right place at the right moment. I had many wonderful experiences of allowing myself to get in touch / be in the moment / listen to that universal nudge. I would come to a fork in the road (the end of the hall with the choice to go right or left) and would have the urge to turn one way and someone would be having blood drawn, and I would go and hold their hand and distract them. I had many wonderful healing conversations with strangers that crossed my path. Ships in the night that shaped my life, touched my heart.
- A magical experience at the Unity Church (and there are many, some unfolding in this now moment) I was going to a Wed. night meeting from work. I started out being early and ended up being late. Driving there I was thinking that I would like to get some nutritional information and start eating better. When I arrived the doors were closed and I decided to go for a walk instead. On the stairs, I ran into a friend and got one of his great 'hugs'. On the way back up the stairs, I told the lady coming down that we were too late and that I was going to go for a walk. She invited herself to come with me. She introduced herself and guess what, she worked in the nutrition field. I was 'in the flow'. I was in the right place at the right moment - super tuned into Universe. Then I said to myself - whoa, this is too much, and everything stopped. The experience was over. The universe gave me what I asked for. I strived for years to tune in again. To find and ride that stream again. I have achieved moments since, but nothing like that feeling again.
- I met Ralph at that Unity Church. One day the minister was talking about making a list of things you would like to do. Then, dah!!!, go out and do them. I had a thought when getting up after the service - 'you've seen that guy a few times, you should say 'hi''. Then downstairs at coffee gathering afterwards, he came and stood right next to my chair. So I jumped up and said, "a little voice said to me....." He left a few minutes later. When Wendy and I were leaving, we saw Ralph getting on a motorcycle. I went over and said, a motorcycle ride would be on my list of things to do. One thing lead to other, I eventually got my motorcycle ride and we have been together ever since. GOD / Universe, was definitely in control - there was no stopping the process.
There are hundreds more of these historical moments, I just can't think of any in the moment. I hope this sparks your memories and would be 'tickled pink' if you cared to share some with me.
Love and Lightening Up on Myself
Peace and Goodwill All
