Wow, it’s Friday again which means it’s time for All That Seems Random Fridays, where we share how aware (or not) we are of the events, people and opportunities the universe has presented to us based on our focus and desires.

Because we need to CELEBRATE them.

This week was a week. I’m glad I saw it. I’m just as glad it’s gone. And it’s a reminder that nothing, nothing ever happens the exact same way twice which is good when it’s bad and bad when it’s good.

It’s also in these moments if we’re paying attention, that we get to practice ending the patterns we tend to live our lives in.

Looking back at the week now, I realize how much was accomplished, although on Tuesday, I was just about ready to quit.

It Was a Bright Sunny Day.

Sunny wasn’t really helping me focus. In fact Sunny kept drawing my attention away from what I wanted to focus on. So I allowed it to do just that and headed outside into the bright sun drenched backyard, with the dogs.

Me, mumbling under my breath, questioning existence while beating myself up with self-talk for not doing what I felt I needed to do. And just to make sure I was well aware of what I was doing, I’d just finished reading the introduction of  “How to Disagree Without Being Disagreeable”, by Suzette Haden Elgin.

Hmphf, disagreeing with myself disagreeably, huhhhh bouy.

And On a Sunny Afternoon, Closing In On a 60 degree High, Near Mid Afternoon …

stood a lone blade of grass, surrounded by a other tufts of grass. The lone blade held 7, maybe 9 drops of dew and none of the other blades held any.

I suddenly I felt better.

I smiled. And I hear on the breeze, “see beautiful!”

And I realize, I am thirsting and receiving.

And I can’t help standing there with this silly smile, forgetting the disagreeable disagreement I’d been having with myself.

The dogs and I stay outside for 20 minutes and play.

Now the Random Part

Yeah, I would tell you if I could, but I can’t. It’s a good secret though. Indeed it’s very good. It will benefit my right people, who I know are heading my way.

I have no complaints, minus the pain in my butt that I’ve been talking to and the things it’s told me. But that’s not a conversation for here or now. Another post, another time, another place maybe.

I’m still smiling.

And then there are the notes found on the desk this week:

Oops there were no notes. Did I mention, this was a week?

That’s it for me, what random events, people and opportunities are showing up in your life, that aren’t really random at all?
