True story: A friend and I were making our way to our weekend destination. We had decided to venture out and were treating ourself to a stay at a horse ranch. I was to later learn it was my friend's birthday, so it was a double treat. Oh, did I mention we were in Botswana which made the venture even more special. So we had ridden the crowded combi to our stop. We were the only ones I recall getting off and we were surrounded by nothing but trees. We searched for the sign and found that it pointed into the trees...hummm. So we braved our way forward. We were doing well, enjoying each other's company and the purity of nature when we found ourselves at a crossroads. The road suddenly split and the signs had stopped. Which way do we go? We entered an small panic as we tried to discern which way to the resort? We'll call. Good idea. Thank God for cellphone service even in the middle of the bush! Well, my friend makes the call and then she laughs. What is it I ask? He said, referring to the friendly lodge owner, that it doesn't matter which way we go for they both lead to the same place. What a relief and so we went right, simply to go right, trusting our destination was ahead.
Well, I recalled this story just yesterday. See I had called a different friend to obtain information. He had knowledge of inviting me to a Spiritual Experience on the same weekend as another Spiritual Healing Workshop. So I needed more details to help assist me in choosing where I would be spending my time that weekend. While explaining the conflicting event to him, he lovingly passed along encouragement of how he has known several other people who have had to make such decisions which arranging to come to the event he was associated with. He spoke of it transformative nature, the high vibration and the assist of the Angelic realm in preparing a space for individual enlightment, expansion and growth. Then he mentioned, "I see you are at a split". Really, I don't see it that way for I feel I will gain either way. Despite my response, he didn't seem convinced. I sensed his feeling as if I would miss something should I not come to the event he was promoting. Yet, I found myself remembering the scene from above. "They both lead to the same place". Sometimes we put such emphasis into our decisions. Seeking to get something out the experience and often feeling as if it isn't available at home. But my travel to Africa, showed me that there are often many tresaures right in our own backyard or right were we stand for essentially, we are that treasure. So I truly am seeing my mindset shifting to believe that I carry the angels with me, so I don't need to worry about meeting them somewhere else, for they arrive when I do. So maybe the blessing is to go where others are not as aware of the Angels' presence and take them there with me.
