Random Thoughts?

Lately I’ve been surrounded with similar stories of parent and adult child reunions! I’m amazed at the shared feeling of completion in our lives just by meeting them and seeing some part of ourselves in them. It is so profound – a shift in the psyche so deep that a feeling of inner completion wells up.

Why would meeting the missing parent as an adult offer so many answers to the questions of who we are? Wouldn’t I still be me whether or not I ever met my Dad? Wasn’t I stumbling along the bumps and pot holes of life like everyone else? Yes, of course I was. But for me, there was a deeper missing connection to something that felt like a black hole in my soul. We all have these holes. We strive to fill them all the time. Without them I don’t think we would have the push of desire, and without desire we wouldn’t move forward in life.

Desire is fueled by intuition. When I’m able to listen quietly to that still inner voice it provides some guidance as to what the next right thing is for me to do. Somehow, in the mean time, all these stepping stones are being laid and I really need only recognize the desire to move forward, create an intention for the search or goal, and the stepping stones become illumined, like the full moon in the night sky.

The question for me is who is laying the stepping stones? What creates the glow of each one showing me the way? There is a lot of research available about the power of intention. Quantum physicists have proven the subatomic system is ignited into action with just our thoughts.

My intention was no more powerful than wanting to meet my father someday. I wrote about it, had the intention of offering forgiveness, compassion, and understanding. I wasn’t looking for who I was or any missing piece of myself. I really just turned it over to my guardian angels to either make it happen or not. But what I did put in place was the desire arising from my thoughts. Writing it down provided the focus I needed to ignite the powers of intention.

So, again a question - how was a reunion orchestrated? I didn’t seem to have anything to do with the actual mechanics of the knowledge I received. But if I look at it all backwards I might be able to see the line up of events that led to the phone call I ultimately made to my father that eventful evening. Backing into it, so to speak, reveals the path the information took to get to me. But here’s the part that attracts me the most – a thought came to my father’s wife to call my brother and give him all the information. He didn’t share it with me, but six months later it was my sister in law that was literally losing sleep holding on to it. At least two random episodes of thoughts ignited a desire to move forward with an action.

I’m not saying I created all of this, or even co-created it. I’m just posing the question – could there be something else at work here? Is karma predestining the meetings? Have we all set into motion, long before this life time, the people we are suppose to meet and all of this is working together on some cosmic, mystical, or even magical level?

Something else is happening, I know this for certain, and I’m going to continue to hold the questions. It’s one way I can continue to keep my mind open to all the possibilities in the world.

Don’t look for the answers. Keep creating the questions.

Inquiringly yours,

Kathy
