Synchronicity Is A Wink From The Universe

For as long as I can remember, I've always believed in a power greater than myself that guides and directs me throughout my life. 

Some people refer to that power as the Universe. Others refer to it as God. 

Personally, I refer to it as a Universal God because I believe God is everywhere. And within everyone.

I don't believe there is only one path to God. There are many. 

I also believe synchronicity works as a catalyst toward working out our destiny. 

Synchronicities are incidents of significance that ask us to consider the possibility of the Divine.

There is a higher intelligence that has our best interest at heart, guiding us toward that which is most right and appropriate for us.

We might not always notice the synchronicities at first because our attention is focused on the issue. However, in retrospect, I can see how this intelligence did, in fact, guide me to my highest good. 

Today, I would like to share an example of synchronicity.

---------------------------

One evening last week, my friend Diana and I made a phone date to catch up with one another. Our talks can last anywhere from 2 to 4 hours. We can jump from one topic to the other and before we know it, hours have passed. Last week, we talked a lot about the changes that have happened in Diana's life since losing her husband a year ago. It's been extremely challenging for her, doing all the things that two people used to do, but now doing it all herself. 

To say that she sometimes feels stressed and worn out would be an understatement. 

She has had to make a lot of adjustments in her life in a very short time.  

Last month she had an overload of emotions - fear, grief, worry, and anxiety.

Diana and I, like all of my close friendships, have a sixth sense about each other. We can sense when the other one is going through something without even talking to them. 

Such as it was for me. I'd been thinking about Diana and her son for the past several weeks, sending them positive energy, prayers, and lots of love. 

I strongly believe in the energy of prayer. There is tremendous power in prayer with a strong intention. And that intention can be felt by others, regardless of where they are.  

During our talk last week, we both did a lot of expressing our feelings and emotions. We reflected, we cried, but we also laughed.

I think it's healthy to share similar experiences because it makes the other person feel less alone. I never tell anyone what to do with their life or how to do it. I simply share my experience and then allow them to take from it whatever they want. 

What Diana is going through was very similar to what I went through when I first moved back to Philadelphia in 2001, so I strongly related to how she felt and told her so. Back then, my life fell apart. And it didn't just fall apart, it BLEW apart. I lost everything that meant security to me. And this went on for two years. Never in my entire life did I feel more scared, confused, and abandoned. 

But I knew that if I held strong to my beliefs, things would turn around and move the other way.

And they did. 

Looking back, I can see the many synchronicities that happened in my life that were so helpful and supportive. They each gave me a feeling of "You're not alone. We got you covered."

By the time our conversation ended that night, we, as close friends, felt even closer. 

After we hung up, I thought about how blessed I was to have a friendship like Diana and me. We've known each other for over 28 years. And in thinking back to that time, I realized our friendship was part of the synchronicity in both our lives. 

When I woke up the next morning, I felt the desire to text Diana to let her know how much I enjoyed our three-hour talk and how much I cherished our friendship.

Here is that text. I highlighted what each of us said so that you could see what transpired...

In her text, Diana shared her Thursday's daily word with me, which matched the topics that she and I talked about the night before, such as change, resilience, and staying attuned to the Universe...

Have a great rest of your week, folks!
