Good day to you! I had originally begun this post yesterday in betwixt and between adventures. I had first set out to the local lighthouse to see if I could spot someone needing help who was lost and I was just felt really pulled to do something beyond sitting. I never did see them, however I found a few moments of inspiration and got to enjoy the company of a camera shy sea dog (aka seal). That was fine and dandy for my needs until later on when I was pulled to go for another drive in the evening.
That adventure turned out to be truly magnificent and I was blessed with being in the midst of one of the most intense storms I have ever experienced. I had followed listening to my guidance and intuition and had made a necessary call before heading out of the service area on what I originally had believed would be a short drive.
Boy, was I wrong! I ended up parking beside the ocean and enjoying some rain and wind for a bit when I really noticed it increasing in the distance in intensity and then started to see flashes of light. I am still unsure if it was lightning or transformers blowing but I got to see three of them and after the first two I found myself wrapped in the most amazing experience. I was acutely aware of protection and though I could easily have and some may believe I should have been I was not in point of fact afraid. I was enjoying and respecting the sheer power of mother nature unleashing her power upon the earth.
The winds whipped at my vehicle with such intensity that it shook as though it had two quarterbacks on either side trying to push the other out of the way with my vehicle. The rain became so intense that no word of a lie if I had been outside of the vehicle and held my hand out that I would have been unable to see it. It brought back memories of a tornado I was in once with both the approach the lasting of the intensity and then it’s passing to still a stormy state but one that had less life altering power within its breath.
So what did I do in that moment? Hehe well I decided that would be the perfect time to drive back home and maybe get the chance to follow the storm there. So I started the engine and did a U-turn on the road heading back west. I was shocked to see that all around my little bubble of relative and unbeknownst to me at its happening but absolutely undeniably noticeable bubble of protection. The roadways all around were covered in thick debris washed up across the road and other parking spots. I’m talking inches thick type of debris. Rocks and wood and seaweed and more were all around me as I looked around in awe at witnessing the road become the beach.
I approached the hillside and started up it really wanting to find no trees across it which a few moments later I did happen upon. Not a small tree that one could move off easily either. I sat there a moment and saw a v dub drive up behind me with their pop up top up. They had been parked in a different area and had been absolutely hit with a much harder force of storm.
As a single woman on my own out there I had little desire to stop and offer assistance as though I am adventurous, I also have boundaries to adventure and placing myself in a situation like that goes well beyond my safe zone of potential experience. I listened to my intuition and I drove on, returning to my safe haven in the most illogical and unlikely of places in the entire area.
I sat there and I embraced the experience that was being placed before me. I always felt safe. I always felt protected. At the same time I chose to make choices that would ensure my survival and thriving.
I find in this experience a lesson for living. We can choose adventure without understanding the depth and breadth of that same adventure but still safely follow its path holding a respectful awareness or we can choose to stay at home and deny the opportunity for adventure and all the benefits and true blessing it can offer a person. Adventure can be anything, it can be climbing a mountain or going on a hike or anything really so long as one is choosing to integrate the experience into ones life and personality. It also once again affirmed the glorious protection to be found in listening to ones intuition and following the guidance presented.
I was like a child full of glee hearing waves crash and wind whip around the atmosphere. Herein lies todays message. Listen to your intuition and try to bust out of your shell today by trying something you are being called towards. Find some child like joy and be so very grateful for any and all protection you may have around you. Some of it unseen and oftentimes unnoticed and other times noticed but not seen. The best of all of course being when it is seen and noticed, partnered in glorious synchronicity in my opinion.
In allowing yourself to do this you are allowing your heart to play with joy. Thusly you are raising your vibration and will attract more of the things you seek in your life. I say that because they are the things most humans of rational and reasonable thought process do desire.
I could have chosen to shake and break in the grips of that storm but what good would that do? What good does it ever do us to fall to shaking and breaking. Do we not then have to pick up the pieces ourselves at some point? Would it not be much better to choose to embrace the moment and the gifts it brings. To be grateful for the opportunity given to us in each and every day and then to not only think about embracing joy and joyful living but to be truly living it.
May each of us walk in our choices this day. Allowing the space for healthy and fun experiences to birth their way into our lives and days. Then may we each and every one of us take that treasure and share that joy with others in loving, supportive respectful and honourable ways for the greater good of all. Seek the lighthouse of adventure in our lives and then shine like a beacon for others to also become curious enough to perhaps do the same. Sharing divine love like it isn’t a rare treasure but an every single day one.
That is the message for this day and I am now heading for a nap for as much as I enjoyed and appreciated my amazing experience I am now tired beyond the point of espresso.
I love you all
Ps There is no podcast yet and maybe not for today at all due to this mini adventure.
