And Now For Something Different
Reminder to self: Life is directed by forces and events I may not understand or even be aware of. Chance occurrences often manage to alter even the most structured of lives. While life can be unpredictable, the outcome is always change; sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. My path through life is never a ride down a perfectly straight highway. Sometimes, I may even experience hairpin turns or complete reversals of direction. Despite my plans, “the Universe” has its own agenda from which I cannot escape participation.
Can you tell I added the Tarot application on Facebook?! I’m not a believer in the mystical magic of Tarot, but I do love the wisdom of the individual cards. When I was going through a particularly difficult time in my life (separation and divorce), I found it very centering to compare my current thinking and emotions to the symbolism found in the cards or card spreads. Even when it was wrong, it was helpful (“No, that’s not quite right. It’s more like this.”). This particular bit of wisdom has been brought to you by the letter F. No, that’s not it. It was actually brought to you by the Wheel of Fortune card.
