There’s a moment when something clicks; when whatever is said, or that you’re reading, suddenly makes you stop and think, “That’s it. That’s what I’ve been waiting for.”
It’s impossible to know from where such inspiration will derive. In a recent conversation, someone was telling me the story of his moment of spiritual awakening. The messenger was as unconventional as could be – a constant joker, sarcastic and someone this speaker would generally say was not someone he would listen to.
But, in the course of their discussion, the sarcastic one, in a rare moment of seriousness, said, “That’s the Universe talking to you.”
Had it come from anyone else, this gentleman I was speaking with would likely have shrugged it off. But the messenger, and the oddly serious tone of the message, made him stop and think, “That’s it. That’s what I’ve been waiting for.”
So you can pull a book off the shelf, open to a random page, and see if you find the answer you’ve been looking for. Or call up someone that you haven’t spoken with in a while. Because, you never know what message you may receive in doing so.
