"And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the Universe is unfolding just as it should." -Max Ehrmann

Sometimes life throws us curve balls.  And in the midst of trying our best to get up, dust ourselves off, and attempt to redirect our lives in the direction that we think we should be going, what would happen if we just stopped.  Just stopped and allowed whatever it was that was going on in our lives to continue, and instead of running from the dreaded unknown and unpredictable, we actually embraced it. 

I recently had a few days that all I was getting were curve balls.  It literally felt like everything I had planned for was going in the complete opposite direction of what I expected.  Ah, expectation.  Now, that’s a funny concept.  But, anyhow, during the midst of all the chaos, grief, and complete disheartenment, I remembered a quote I once heard that said that true faith is being able to say, “thank you,” in the midst of tragedy.  Now that is a concept.  Not praying for your situation to improve, or to change, but to say “thank you" and have faith that this is all part of the grandeur scheme of things and this somehow contributes to your big, beautiful life.

I can’t speak for everyone out there, but I have a strong belief that things just have a way of working themselves out.  It isn’t until we step in to take control and manipulate a situation when things start to go awry.  Maybe we should all start getting out of our own ways and start allowing the Universe to conspire to our requests instead of trying so darn hard to figure it all out ourselves.  Sometimes through the tragedy is the quickest route to our dreams and we can't see this looking forward, only in hindsight.  

Every day I have to remind myself that 1.  The Universe is ALWAYS on my side, and 2.  The Universe is much more capable of bringing me a life more incredible than I could ever imagine.  The only thing I have to do is allow it.  Repeat after me, my friends, “Ask. Let go. Allow. Receive. Repeat.”

Wishing you light, love, and the ability to allow your dreams to manifest.
