Creepy/coincidental things have been happening.
A couple of days ago, BOTH the alarm clocks in our
bedroom stopped working. At the same
time.
Yesterday, I put on my wristwatch (which I use only
when we’re going to town), and when I checked the time, I found out it had also
stopped working.
My thought was: What is the universe trying to tell me?
Answer 1: You’re out of time.
Well, if I kick the bucket, this will make a great story
for all of you. But since it’s
definitely not in my plans, and I envision myself as an old lady organizing
wheel chair races in the old folks home, I’m obviously not getting the message.
Answer 2: Time is not important.
Life flows on, my life is tiny and just a speck in the
big picture of the world, blah, blah, blah.
I get it. But really, Universe…. Wouldn’t
all this be a waste of your time?
Answer 3: There’s a ghost in my house who likes to play
with clocks when I’m sleeping.
I can’t totally discount this. There are s-t-r-a-n-g-e things that have happened
on this ranch. But once again, really?
Ghostie, you have unlimited time on your hands. What’s up?
Do clocks and watches that track time piss you off?
Answer 4: You don’t need to worry about what time it is.
The opposite of answer 1.
That’s a human for you… take a fact, and come up with diametrically
opposed positions. (Hmmm… I think we
also call that politics.) Or- live your
life, enjoy each day, and enjoy the blessing of no longer having to deal with multiple
deadlines and pressures.
Answer 5: You really don’t have to get up at 6 am every
morning.
Ranch life has slowed down with winter approaching, and
there’s not a lot to do. Just live. But I’ll still get up at 6 am for our morning
ritual of coffee and watching the sun rise, so I don’t think that’s it.
Answer 6: Life will happen in its own time.
So maybe, don’t force things. Quit wasting time thinking about what I must do next in my life. Just go with the flow.
Don’t worry, be happy. Enjoy the
mountains outside. (I do look at them a
lot- the color and light are always changing.)
So, Universe..... what's up?
