God Winks
Today is my Sacred Sunday. Yes, I know the calendar says that it is Monday but I'm resting today and have given myself permission to do nothing. While doing nothing, I logged onto my GoogleReader account and discovered that Lisa at Groggy Froggy posted a video of Josh Groban singing "You Are Loved."
I started the video and then closed the window so I could hear the song without seeing the image. Normally, I would not have taken time to listen to the video but the dip I've fallen into has left me feeling drained and discouraged. I figured checking out the video would be an okay thing to do. Since I'd been on my computer for awhile, I had a lot of open windows so I began clicking the X's on the upper right hand corner to clean up my desktop. As I heard Josh sing lyrics that included "don't give up" I came upon this open window.
Whoa! Couldn't help but feel that the universe was giving me a very clear message in that moment. I didn't know this pop-up ad from Travelocity was on my screen until I started closing the extra windows.
I gotta tell you, I needed that! Thank you, Universe, for sending me a God Wink! Another thank you goes out to Lisa for introducing me to an inspirational song I had never heard before.

Yet another reminder that it really is okay to do nothing!!
Blessings!

I love these synchronistic messages that spirit sends us! That message was not only for you but for everyone who clicks on your blog and sees this post...and I must say that I needed to hear that message as well. Thanks Beverly! (and I loved the Josh Groban song too)

Hey Kate...Gosh, I never thought about others being touched by the 'don't give up' message too! Duh! Thank you for pointing that out and also, thanks for your kind words....Hugs! Beverly

What a fantastic god-wink - I've never heard that phrase before but I know what you mean by it because they happen to me whenever I need reminding of something! Glad you had a good and timely day of doing nothing!

Thanks for this post, Beverly. I'm always on the lookout for godwinks - even if they're someone else's - I think they belong to all of us, don't you?

It's so funny how time is anything & everything but linear.
Yay for stillness and cuddles from a four legged bundle of unconditional love. I absolutely LOVE the photo of you and Buddy!
Blessings and big hugs,
J :)
