Unexpected

I recently took some shortly planned vacation time with some friends. I had the opportunity to go to Colorado & experience the beauty & serenity of the mountains. I got to just revel in the peace that surrounded me as I continued to attempt to master the skill of snowboarding. I am no expert, but am now confident that I can adequately maneuver with both of my feet attached to a single board on a slick surface of snow ;^) We will see if this holds true this coming week!!!

I also got the chance to meet some new friends, which is always a great time for me. I believe that there are no strangers, just friends we have not met yet. I met a friend who answered a question that has never left my head. This furthered my belief that things are brought to our attention as we need them, but that we always have to be looking for them because so many people just miss the signs & are left with questions as they grow older. I will call them the, "what if's" that we have almost all heard from our parents or close family.

As I typed this, I was shown more proof for my point. I took one type of snack with me on my vacation. Nature Valley Oats & Honey bars...props!!! They rock! I have never seen a commercial for them, but did just as I was typing the previous paragraph & the meaning that came to me is this. God & faith are what fulfill & satisfy our wants & needs when the time is right. This goes both ways, which means that if there are things in our lives that should not be there they will be taken in a sort of justice. Just like Love can be a thief of our heart.

So what... What is all of this supposed to mean to you? I can't actually tell you what it will mean to you, but what I can tell you is... Have faith that what is meant to come into your life will come in perfect timing even if we think that we would like for it to come sooner. If things are taken from your life, please take time to reflect on what is really supposed to mean to you & in your life. Maybe that person or thing was simply supposed to show you that what you are looking for is out there & the timing will be perfect. My heart is filled with faith that you will have all that you want in life if you take time to reflect & stay open & looking for the signs that are waiting to show you how to receive what you need & want. Peace, Love, & Happiness to you all!!!
