My Thoughts on Synchronicity and Manifestation…

My thoughts on synchronicity and manifestation are many. I have spent many an hour over these past twenty-some years thinking about both. These are just a few of my thoughts….

What is going on inside of me is looking for expression in the external world. What is going on inside others is also looking for expression in the external world. And sometimes the two mirror one another and indeed “find” each other and synchronicity occurs.

Synchronicities and manifestations sometimes involve other people, sometimes not. The are also expressing themselves through numbers, nature, and other physical aspects of our world.

Daily Writing Prompt – Day Twenty-Three

What is the last thing you learned?

I guess you could say this is the last thing I relearned—the hard way. I need to think over my decisions before committing to something. I tend to be a people-pleaser and will say “Yes” to something before thinking it through carefully. Then, later down the road, I felt regret for the decision that I made. Hopefully this is a lesson I don’t have to keep repeating in the future.

Random Thoughts – Day Twenty-One

These thoughts and emotions that I’ve been experiencing over the past several weeks have been all over the place. I’ve placed myself in several situations, including the interim teaching position, that are causing my mental chatter to be at an all-time high. And all I can do at this point is take it one day at a time and navigate the course the best I can.

This past weekend was very busy, but also very productive. Saturday was one of the busiest days I’ve had in quite a while. I got done all those things that I set out to do and then some, so there’s something to be said for that. And the best part of it all is that I got to be of service to others along the way.

I’ve been thinking quite a bit about providence here of late. There was a daily writing prompt about fate and destiny and that got the wheels of my mind turning. I also have talked with several about predestination and the role that it may play in our lives. No really concrete answers to speak of in these areas, but definitely something to ponder on.

It’s getting that time of year for the college basketball playoffs and much ado about “March Madness”. There are those who get all about guesses and predictions this time of year. I watched a college game last night between NC State and Duke. The Blue Devils were favored in the game and although they got off to a slow start, ended up winning in the end. I don’t really have a favorite team, but my interest in hoops does increase around this time of year.

Just writing these thoughts I’ve been having as I sit here at 5:45 a.m. on a Tuesday morning. Getting ready to make final preparations and then get ready to head out for work. I’ve been stopping by Starbucks for my daily morning coffee, as well at the local grill for morning breakfast. I am indeed a person of habit, most of them good.

Daily Reflections…

WEEDING THE GARDEN The essence of all growth is a willingness to make a change for the better and then an unremitting willingness to shoulder whatever responsibility this entails.  AS BILL SEES IT, p. 115 By the time I had reached Step Three I had been freed of my dependence on alcohol, but bitter experience has shown me that continuous sobriety requires continuous effort. Every now and then I pause to take a good look at my progress. More and more of my garden is weeded each time I look, but each time I also find new weeds sprouting where I thought I had made my final pass with the blade. As I head back to get the newly sprouted weed (it’s easier when they are young), I take a moment to admire how lush the growing vegetables and flowers are, and my labors are rewarded. My sobriety grows and bears fruit. From the book Daily Reflections. Copyright © 1990 by Alcoholics Anonymous World Services, Inc. All rights reserved.
