There are times when the stars align just SO...

when the moon is full...
and the numerological aspects create scintillating equations of a seemingly prophetic nature....
when "signs" and "symbols" appear with emphatic frequency.....

There are moments when the air is THICK and RICH and DENSE with mysticism....
when the moisture in the atmosphere essentially DRIPS "whimsy"....

One only need be "aware"....
with eyes and heart FULLY open to the INFINITE POSSIBILITIES of the universe.....
of God....

For...
In the end of the day.....
TIMING is EVERYTHING.....
Not ONLY with regard to one's "ability" to RECOGNIZE the opportunity....
But....
Certainly...
More so....
to SEIZE that VERY MOMENT and REVEL in its "potential" splendor...

These are the things which set the dreamers apart from the DREAM 'ACTUALIZERS'...

Awaken from the life-long bed of compromise....
Toss the belief that "MEDIOCRITY is ENOUGH" directly OUT the proverbial window...
Go for the GOLD!!
This minute !!
You may feel a tad disconcerted...uncomfortable....
(away from the routine safety net)...
But trust this Blog Mistress....

JUST REACH ......
You'll thank me later....

The Consumate, Existential Dilemma...

Why things happem....
Why obstacles appear...
Why we turn a corner and the ENTIRE scenario has shifted to an extreme...
(somehow having been camouflaged or even hidden to us during its inception...)
These are the mysteries of life....
The perpetual questions...
And IN these pivotal moments..
These Essentially LIFE-ALTERING moments....
HOW do we react ?
How did we, in fact, INFLUENCE the occurrence in question ?
Were we even factored in at the onset ?
WHO did the planning ?
WAS it planned ?
Happenstance ?

The perpetual pursuit of TRUTH...
How to UNEARTH its precipitating factors...

Will this girl find the answers beneath the layers of paint ??
Remains to be seen...

Ebbs, Flows, Old Friends......

It's really quite remarkable and somewhat dumbfounding to reflect back upon a day's events, emotions, experiences....ONE day....
and consider and even enumerate ALL the ebbs and flows and ins and outs and ups and downs that took place in this relatively miniscule amount time...
For example, in just 24 hours, we experienced ecstasy, fear, bewilderment, confusion, flirtation, nostalgia, sadness, feelings of elation, satisfaction, joy, laughter, tears,
and so on....
The veritable GAMIT of highs and lows...ALL in the timespan of a relative heartbeat...
We ran into old friends....new friends....
Shopped, saw movies, cooked, went out to dinner....
It is NO WONDER that we humans are actually exhausted at the end of each day...
And then, the alarm goes off in the morning.......
and guess what ??
We do it ALL again...
like ants marching up and down the corridors of a tree trunk....
one by one...
an assembly line of ants...

To what end, I ask ?
Where's the pot of gold ?
Where's the RAINBOW, for that matter ???
