The Path.

With FOH now here, I haven’t given much thought to The Path … my Path.

In a way it’s nice to be so busy. Sometimes I think it’s helpful when there’s less time to think. But I also miss connecting with my inner self … taking stock. Thinking about where I’m going and where I want to be.

Now, it’s all about FOH. And that’s okay, more than okay. Yet I need to make soul time.

Soul time lately is just half assed rushed time. Like quickly trying to get in yoga before it’s off to the next thing. It’s not that I’ve been feeling lost lately, it’s that I’m spread so thin that when I have an hour or two, I flop.

And I kinda sorta just figured I needed to put whatever I want on the back burner right now anyway because: 1. I don’t have the energy for anything else and 2. It’s the FOH show.

So this morning, at our passport appointments, when Brother handed over his documents and the woman at the Post Office looked at us and said, I’m not sure why I’m about to ask you this but … and then proceeded to drop Gpa’s name and wonder if we were any relation to him, my jaw dropped to the floor.

Nothing on FOH’s or Brother’s application indicated any connection or relation to Gpa. But something told her, say something. Go ahead, ask.

Turns out, when Gpa was running his bank, she worked for him for ten and a half years. This blew me away.

Of all the People who were working this morning, it was her we were matched up with. Of all the days, and all the times, it was this one given to me on the phone.

You guys. This thing is not random. This I know for sure. And hell yes, I need to re-know it all the time, because I start to have my other worldly doubts.

But this morning, this morning represented The Path for me. And Gpa showed up to tell me {and Brother}, that even when you feel like you’ve fallen off your Path, you haven’t.

You’re still on it. The scenery might have changed somewhat. That’s good. New scenery, new perspective. Just keep going.

It felt so good to talk about Gpa with a franger {that’s my cross between friend and stranger}. My heart did that tug and pull and little leap. He is sorely missed but he is here. Working his magic.

Making sure we know he is hovering close by.

People. There is divine timing. There is something so much bigger than all of us combined in this world happening. So big that I can’t even begin to put it in to words. I feel it.

It is huge and awesome and perfect and we are all a part of it. Walking our own separate Paths. And when we’re really really lucky, they cross.
