Maybe This Is Why It's Hidden!? ;)

So, today I was thinking about signs and "signs". On the roadways we are surrounded by obvious signs: the ones that tell us what road we're on, when to slow down and when there is a curve ahead. However, sometimes on the road of life the "signs" are not always so crystal clear ;)

I must say that I am ever so grateful and am a believer in the signs that have guided me in my life...yet, I am also a big believer in the fact that we must just jump and follow our guts and our hearts and most important of all...make wise (for us) decisions. TRUST YOURSELF and YOUR ABILITIES! (I am in the process of learning and re-learning this lesson!) It's so important to trust your instincts and go out on those limbs and take those risks, even if the signs are invisible and perhaps misspelled! Those secret pathways to your dreams may just have a hidden entrance! (beware of typos...your entrance could be disguised as an entrace!)


Going for it....

  1. TRUST. Trust. Smallish word...5 letters, one syllable. The effect of this one small, seemingly insignificant word can make or break your life.
    One might say... "I've been hurt by others, so I will no longer trust anyone". In this case we must learn to trust ourselves. A common phrase "TRUST IN GOD"... which means essentially, trust in yourself - trust your HEART - for it is HE who gives us that inner ability which we so often overlook, or ignore.
    The hidden horrors - the outcome of blind trust - can be devastating... but if used cautiously will lead you to enlightenment.
    Alice happened upon the hall of doors... she had to trust her instincts as to what to do...

    "Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small passage, not much larger than a rat-hole: she knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw. How she longed to get out of that dark hall, and wander about among those beds of bright flowers and those cool fountains, but she could not even get her head through the doorway; "and even if my head would go through," thought poor Alice, "it would be of very little use without my shoulders. Oh, how I wish I could shut up like a telescope! I think I could, if I only knew how to begin." For, you see, so many out-of-the- way things had happened lately, that Alice had begun to think that very few things indeed were really impossible.

    There seemed to be no use in waiting by the little door, so she went back to the table, half hoping she might find another key on it, or at any rate a book of rules for shutting people up like telescopes: this time she found a little bottle on it, ("which certainly was not here before," said Alice), and tied round the neck of the bottle was a paper label, with the words "DRINK ME" beautifully printed on it in large letters. It was all very well to say "Drink me," but the wise little Alice was not going to do that in a hurry. "No, I'll look first," she said, "and see whether it's marked 'poison' or not"; for she had read several nice little stories about children who had got burnt, and eaten up by wild beasts, and other unpleasant things, all because they would not remember the simple rules their friends had taught them: such as, that a red-hot poker will burn you if you hold it too long; and that, if you cut your finger very deeply with a knife, it usually bleeds; and she had never forgotten that, if you drink much from a bottle marked "poison," it is almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later.However, this bottle was not marked "poison," so Alice ventured to taste it, and, finding it very nice (it had, in fact, a sort of mixed flavour of cherry-tart, custard, pine-apple, roast turkey, toffy, and hot buttered toast), she very soon finished it off. "What a curious feeling!" said Alice. "I must be shutting up like a telescope!"

    And so it was indeed: she was now only ten inches high, and her face brightened up at the thought that she was now the right size for going through the little door into that lovely garden. First, however, she waited for a few minutes to see if she was going to shrink any further: she felt a little nervous about this; "for it might end, you know," said Alice to herself; "in my going out altogether, like a candle."

    SO you see... just like Alice we find hidden doors... and must trust our instincts as to what to do about them... Lewis Carroll hit the nail right on the head.

    So I say to you... "Run, Alice, Run"! But be aware of your surroundings - there are hidden entrances everywhere... they are there for you, but you must trust your heart and your instincts so that you make it through to the beautiful garden in one piece.

    My the light shine brightly on your path and lead you to the right door...

  2. ((((Andrea))), thank you for this perfectly wonderful reminder and gift! Love Alice! I haven't read the book for such a long time...i think i need to now...but I just saw the new movie a while ago! My favorite line-turned-mantra was/is "I choose my path!" :)

    Love YOU, always!
