Nothing is random

Cause just like a tree planted - planted by the rivers of water


That bringeth forth fruits - bringeth forth fruits in due season;

 Everything in life got its purpose,

Find its reason in every season,

Forever, yeah! (the absolute legend BoB Marley)

Nothing is random, nothing and no one is random, no one
The dots are all connected and the experiences all matter for a lesson, some lesson
The free will that we have is just that- free will to choose how we respond to the signs of life
We make choices there are consequences
The great philosopher Lauren Hill says "consequence is no coincidence" cause and effect and all that
It really is just that simple.

 I met a lady last year in a store, she just came from the gym, she usually never go to that store, this was my first time at the store, a friend introduced us and little did I know that so called "random" meeting would lead me to having the support to realize one of my dreams. She was on the committee for a Literary Festival that I always dreamed of being invited to, she called me last night and asked me to be involved and will put it into motion if I say yes
Yes yes yes! Are you kidding?
And so, random and seasons and purpose - yeah they mean something to me
What's a random thing you thought happened to you?
Share!!
Peace

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
