 "I'm not interested in competing with anyone. I hope we all make it." ~Erica Cook A lot of people are skeptical of the spiritual, paranormal, astrophysical, mediums, psychics, and a litany of other things that cannot be explained using concrete absolutes. I am not one of those people. I believe that anything we can imagine is possible, however unlikely it seems. But I totally get the skepticism. The world does not lack in charlatans (...love that word) who prey on the vulnerable, nor is there a shortage of people who feel lost, lonely and in search of guidance/answers. Most of the people I know or have spoken to are looking for something, and I think the holiday season magnifies this. With a new year fast approaching, we wonder things more than ever. Are we on the right path? What else is there? The questions doubts and second-guessing are an endlessly steady stream. A couple of days ago, I sent three of my own "burning questions" to a highly recommended astrologist/numerologist/psychic. I'd been wanting to do this for a long time, but didn't trust just anyone (...and it wasn't time before NOW, something I understand more than I can explain). Last night she sent me her results and I sat, shaking, crying while I read them. I don't know what I was hoping for, besides answers of course, but what I got still boggles my mind. Heck, most of what she told me were things deep down I already knew. But as she put it, sometimes we just need confirmation, someone to tell us, "You're getting there. Keep going." I trust my faith, my instincts, and the Universe to know where my steps "ought to go" and whom to keep close in my life, though i don't always listen (...never a good thing)! Today I am happy beyond words that my little internal compass is pointed the "right way". I am happy to feel less self-doubt than I have in a long time and delighted to have finally silenced all of the outside voices who criticize or judge me. Only YOU know where you've come from, where you're standing right N-O-W and why. And only YOU can decide what's next. Will we get it right every time? Absolutely not! But this, too, is part of the journey.

About The Author
I grew up in rural North Carolina. When I was only nineteen, I moved away and became a military wife. My only aspiration at that tender time in my life was to create an adult life that "fixed" all of the "injustices" of my childhood. Secretly, however, I wanted to reach for the sky! I wanted to be a writer and find ways to "save the world" (my mother used to say, "You have Save the World Syndrome".). Mostly, I wanted to matter. Archives
