That day, when I started my daily walk with the dog on our bike trail, I wondered if I was going to see a coyote (in Native American medicine, it is a reminder and an invitation for more balance between Wisdom and Joy in our lives).
I hadn’t spotted one on the trail for a few months…up until then…Forgot about it and on my way back, there it was….in the middle of the trail! Staring at us. I got the message…Thank you!
2 years ago, on my 50th birthday I was giving an eulogy to the Life’s Celebration of my friend Barbara Humphrey, who had just passed from Ovarian Cancer, whose journey I was closely involved with. And it was painful to let her and see her go. I guess, losing a loved one will always bring back all the losses I experienced in my life, and all the pain….
But this year, I woke up with a different feeling that some shift was happening inside of me and more and more I was being able to find the “Eye of my hurricane” and stay there, and more and more I was even able to enjoy life from there.
There is a lot going on in my life right now, and a lot of it is not very pleasant, but because of all of my friends and family, because my children and Chris, I have been able to be clear of how really BLESSED I really am.
Then, as we were driving to have dinner together with my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law’s family, we caught eye of a rainbow that “followed” us for quite some time.
I felt blessed again, and like a warm wave engulfing me, I could hear Ricardo’s voice telling me: “Tudo vai dar certo” – Everything is going to be ok.
Life IS good, and I’m so glad that I’m alive.
If I cry sometimes because I miss loved ones that are either far or on another spirit level, it is because I’m blessed for all the love I experience and have experienced.
To ALL, thank you for the blessing you all are, and for sharing the blessing of WHO YOU ARE with me.
Love and Huge Brazilian Hugs!!
