Looking for Signs

IMGP2765 300x225 Looking for Signs

Most of the time, I’m pretty confident about what I’m doing–bucking conventional so-called wisdom, finding my own path. On a random Thursday, though, I may find myself not quite so sure. Am I doing this right? What am I doing, anyway? Do I have a right to do whatever it is I’m doing? As best-selling author Sherrilyn Kenyon said at RWA Nationals 2011, “The only obstacle is me, and most days I don’t think enough of myself to be an obstacle.” I hear you, sister.

At times of doubt like these, I ask for signs that I’m on the right track. I think the Universe has a good sense of humor, because sometimes I get a literal sign. Today, as I was wondering what I was doing and if I should keep doing it, I saw the sign, above, at Satya Jewelry. “When the tides change, Be Fearless.” Message received and understood!

Are you asking for a sign? Have you seen a good one? Send it to me and I’ll post it.
xx,
S

    Hi Suzan:

    I always enjoy your posts and I especially love that your latest sign, a call to fearlessness, references “tides.” Can we say…BEACH GLASS!?! :)

    I am a big believer in being open to The Signs and here is one of my more cherished anecdotes.

    I had been seeing my boyfriend, who happens to be Indian-American, for just a few months and even though I felt like he might well be The One, still I wasn't sure if it could work out. I lived in Union Square at the time. One evening as I was coming home from a workout class, mentally in the throes of “He loves me, he loves me not…” I felt compelled to stop by my favorite statue, the one of Mahatma Gandhi in the southwest corner of the park. On a scrap of cardboard propped up against Gandhi's feet someone had scrawled:LOVE IS POSSIBLE.:)
