I do.
It happens to me all the time. Take my teddy for instance, well, it was my brother’s when he was little actually. Anyhow, on Wednesday this week I decided to bring it back from Spain with me and look after it a bit better than I had been. I also wanted to get it repaired so put out a shout out on a group email I’m part of to see if anybody could help. Then, next day Thursday, walking up the path in the caravan park where I live, sorry, I mean ‘holiday all year round park’ as officially we’re not residents, I saw a van that I pass quite regularly with the For Sale sign in the window as usual, only this time it also had a teddy bear there to catch your eye, literally adoringly looking out at you. I guess as a pull on your heart strings no?, make you feel sympathetic for it and thus want to buy the van?
That’s two teddies.
Teddy number three came in the form of a handout that I was given yesterday at a writing workshop I’d attended and had, I kid you not, a whole heap of teddy bears drawn in and around a tree! (The idea being that you chose the one that best suited how you felt and wot not).
Anyway, you get my drift.
Moving on.
My neighbour just popped round with a bag of clothes that she thought I might be interested in. I didn’t think I would be as on first appearance I saw that they weren’t my colour, (sandy beige), nevertheless I thought I’d go through them as there might be something for a friend, you never know. Low and behold I pull out a white t-shirt that has
POWER
POWER
POWER
POWER
POWER
POWER
written down each sleeve!
Now you might not have thought anything of it if you hadn’t heard the voice note from a friend I’d received yesterday morning that ended with, and I thought it so unusual for her that it stuck with me: ‘loads of love, and, a lot of power.’ Power! Since when has she ever said that to me? Never. Add to that Louise Hay’s affirmation for the day that I thought I’d have a look at today, and before the page refreshed, I read ‘I accept my power’, I kid you not! This all amounts to seemingly, like, just in case I wasn’t taking these messages seriously, spirit sending me this third, boldly printed in bright red Power message, a mere 12 times! Maybe highlighting a case of urgency, like ‘let’s not mess around here, let’s get on with it girl!. Shit, the t-shirt also has GRL printed on the front! (And there I was wondering how to change that to Lara, or a new world such as growl, grail, I dunno. Well, I do now. That fabric pen’s gonna be coming right out).
I love synchronicity and I know that these messages are not to be ignored, else I wouldn’t be being sent them, yes, sent them. Spirit is a clear communicator and all as we need to do is be aligned enough to recognise and receive the messages they send. I know I’ve been needing to step into my power and this is a clear message to say, ‘the time is now, let’s do it!’ As Mariko Frederick said in a podcast that I listened to recently “Are you doing it or are you hiding, second guessing yourself?” I’m doing it Mariko, I’m doing it.
You see I’ve been working on something pretty big recently that I want to put into more succinct words and share with you, it’s just it’s something a little bit exposing which means me stepping into a little bit of the uncomfortable. But I will. Teddy’s in it and evidently he wants his story told. I’m going to write it and as soon as I have I’ll be sharing it here. I have the power!
