But that’s all they are – reasons. And in this instance that’s just a polite way of saying excuses. No matter what’s happened in your past, you do have the power to take your life in a new direction. You just have to decide what direction that is and why you want to go there. Sometimes, though, you’re lucky and the universe is the one who decides for you. It may be tired of waiting for you to make the move or make up your mind and it’s going to take the bull by the horns. I’ve had that happen to (actually it’s “for”) me. Here’s an example of how it might work and how you just need to eliminate as much resistance as possible. I am an author (that sounds so pretentious to write) and I like one woman’s work a lot. She has a newsletter. I opened one od them one day and because she put this item in the first paragraph, I saw it. It was something about death and San Antonio. I followed the link and became interested in what she had been talking about. I began to donate to this organization and this established some sort of relationship. Then I learned more and decided to take the death doula class. I took that and began to volunteer at the home for the dying the class was associated with. Oh and I had been assigned a mentor for the class and was intrigued by her and her humor. We developed a friendship. I did vol state. These people whom I have really only known since January followed my progress during the race. They were so supportive they gave me a little celebratory party. At the party one woman asked about my writing. I blurted out (which is not like me) that we could be accountability partners and get together and brainstorm our ideas so we could better support each other. See how that came totally full circle. It started with writing and is now going to flourish even more in the writing aspect. It’s uncanny to me and I wouldn’t believe or even recognize it if I didn’t know how the universe works. It’s almost as if the death doula stuff was just a vehicle. If you just drop all the resistance and obstinance you have, and let things flow, so many wondrous events will show up in your life.
