I have been thinking a lot lately about mini-miracles, God winks, power of intension, or my latest term, God’s high fives! I believe that they are always happening, always around us, but if we are too busy or in our heads, we miss them.
I began to notice them in my life about a year ago. It was my birthday, I was turning fifty and I just had an “inner urge” to get a laptop, literally I just knew it! All reasoning said that I did not need one. We had a regular PC in our spare bedroom and we really couldn’t easily afford it. BUT, I am stubborn - I ordered one in orange! Why orange? At the time, the color just said “yes” to my soul. I later came to know that the color means “fun, socialization and energy”. I chose “freedom” as the password. I knew that this orange box that sat on my lap would mean freedom in my life and that it would be instrumental.
From there, the “high fives from God” began. I found Christine Kane blogs that nourished my soul and I began writing my own blog. By way of other mini miracles, I found an amazing life coach that was able to show me the road away from my eating disorder that had plagued me for years.
Again, I felt an urge…. to be closer to my out of town family - enter FACEBOOK. I started connecting with my nieces and nephews, friends and eventually my sisters! One sister even bought a laptop without knowing a thing about computers, learned how to use it and is now writing and sharing beautiful inspirational pieces.
I am now taking a Martha Beck life coach course on my orange “social” laptop, to coach others and show them how to find their own roads to their essential selves.
I can now honestly say…..trust your instincts , watch for those “high fives from God”. If we can stop and really be in tune to ourselves, amazing things can happen.
