“Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is Patience!”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

We live in such a rush-rush world where everything happens at hyper speed, that when something doesn’t happen right away, we question ourselves and the situation.

We question if we are in the right place, at the right time, thinking that the Universe isn’t as plugged in sometimes as we feel it needs to be!

We forget that when everything is being worked out on our behalf, sometimes a few events need to happen first, in order that what we desire to happen should work out in the best way posssible.

Haven’t you noticed that when something finally happens, the universe has usually worked something out much better than we could have imagined?

I’ve also seen that what seems like a big “NO!” from the Universe, is actually a “not right now” thing, which is really cool! When it does happen, I’m usually much better prepared, or it happens in a way I wouldn’t have imagined!

If things in your life appear to be stalled, (I understand that feeling, believe me), keep yourself busy doing something else.

The best thing of course is to work on a different aspect of that priority, but sometimes we’ve done all we can and we need to just wait.

Waiting is the hard part, especially if there’s a possibility of an answer coming back “NO!” or “Not now!”

I’ve found the trick is to pick up another project I have in the pipeline and work on that. Having a few irons in the fire is a good thing, as long as we’re not distracting ourselves from doing needed work on high priority items! Don’t use this as an excuse to procrastinate! :-))

If you don’t have anything else to occupy your mind and time with, now is a good time to start something which can be picked up and put down as necessary.

When I was on lockdown and couldn’t work in an office, I spent time painting or writing.

As a result, I now have a solo art show to prepare for! I had hoped for it, but hadn’t thought it would happen at this time! The Universe sees ALL of our efforts and allows for many things to happen, many times according to a different schedule than one we set up!

Hang in!

Life has a way of working out if we allow it to!
