Day One Hundred and Four: Signs


I am a believer in signs.
In the back of my ipod case I have a little fortune from a fortune cookie that I got a while back. It says Never Quit. I used to have another one that said Accept Yourself. I put them there because I pulled them from fortune cookies and they really spoke to me. Anyway, the one that said Accept Yourself has vanished somehow, not sure how it escaped, but it has. I’ve taken that as a sign that I don’t need that piece of advice anymore.


I am a firm believer in the idea that the universe sends us signals and that if we listen to those signals, we will find our way. It seems kind of silly, because I really believe in signs for even small things. That dress I really want at the store? If I come back three times over the course of a few weeks and it’s still there, then it’s meant to be. If not, then it wasn’t meant to be.
I like the idea that somewhere out there, some benevolent being is leaving a trail of breadcrumbs, giving me a chance to figure out what I’m really meant to do in this life. I’m not the kind of person who spends and excessive amount of time praying or meditating on things, I just keep my eyes open and hope for the best.


Right now I’m really looking for a sign that I’m headed the right way. Hopefully one will come along sooner rather than later.

Challenge to my Readers:
There are hints everywhere. Try following the signs and see where they take you. Sometimes you might make a wrong turn, but at least you tried. Just don’t follow any ‘signs’ down suspicious alleys. That’s how you lose a kidney.
