Why am I Where I am?

Why am I Where I am?

I have no idea.

And yet—I am.

So while I’m here,

I shall trust.

Trust—that I can only be where I am.

Trust—because I know that my soul would never steer me wrong.

Trust—because of my knowing.

A knowing that has been with me my entire life.

A knowing that I sometimes chose to ignore.

Looking the other way.

Convincing myself that I was doing the right thing.

All—in order to be a good girl.

Make my parents proud.

Fit in.

But—I’ve never fit in.

Ever.

So—when that little tap on my heart

shoved me out the door of my life—

I trusted.

Trusted—that all would be well.

Trusted—that I could never really make a mistake.

Not when I’m following my heart.

Not when I’m trusting.

Why am I where I am?

I have no idea.

But I know—that I am.

    Beautiful SJ. love it !!!

    I am so grateful you were sitting next to me at the GG. No accident there for sure in sharing your love connection with me. I believe you were sitting there with a purpose neither of us knew about until it happened. I had asked/prayed that I feel love, and that it emanate out from my body expanding into the world. Panache opened my heart and released the blocks I had tightly in place allowing for the surge of love you shared to fill and expand me to the highest degree I was able to feel, and leave me there for an extended period of time. For days. I felt the love within me, and around me. In things that I touched love was flowing out from my core and finger tips expanding again and again. We may not know why we are where we are, or who we may impact most of the time, but I definitely know why we were where we were on that one particular day, feeling and sharing divine love on such an expanded level. My heart burst wide open and allowed love to flow as I have never felt/ experienced before. I’m grateful beyond words, and trusting love. <3 ;)

      How wonderful Claudette that day was! And continues to be as we live in the now. ;-)
      I felt so honored to be able to sit by you and get to know you better. Thank you for taking my hand and letting me experience the sharing. All just so very, very wonderful.
      Yes, we may never know the whys, but with trust and surrender, we know that it’s all unfolding perfectly.
      Love to you dear Soul Sister!
