As we walk along the paths that we have chosen,
Spirit guides us in every shape and form.
As I write, a male Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
“rat tat tat tat tat tat tat tat tats” on the
metal skirt of the outside of my bedroom.
This particular bird has been visiting my bedroom
just about every morning for the last 3 weeks.
Up until this morning, I thought it was a
Hairy Woodpecker. Then I had one of those
AH-HA moments and realized that this was the
cyclic return of an energy that has been here,
even before I took up residence.
In my heart, I know what this energy is
telling me and if I listen,
my path will remain guided by Spirit.
This is a conscious choice.
No one else can help me make this decision,
as I am the only one who knows the situation
and I am the one who will live with the
consequences of my actions.
This is the way for all of us.
It is only when we deny this fact that we
create unhappiness and despair.
For now, I will trust in what I experience
and act upon the guidance I’ve been given.
Of course, this means stepping outside
of my comfort zone.
I believe it will be worth the effort as
Spirit returns our deeds back to us.
Always. All ways.

“Allow me to hear the words that are sealed within every stone, cloud and tree.”
