It Happens By Chance
Every situation I get involved in seems to be a stepping stone to something else. I never know why I meet someone or what the significance is of what they were in my life for until I’m down the road a piece. A lot of times the reason why I think I’m showing up somewhere isn’t the real reason why I was there.
A couple of times when I went to see other artists perform I wound up booking gigs at the venue because I showed up there. It’s happened with meeting friends. I met one of my best friends at a temp agency when I went over there to work on their computer. She was there for an interview.
Connections seem to happen for a reason. I know there are people who talk about past lives, soul groups, karma, and reincarnation. I don’t know how to qualify that stuff. I’m dealing with enough illusions on a daily basis, so it’s not like I can get a handle on anything other than a feeling or an impression and that seems to change, too.
What I do know is that somehow I have this inner radar that keeps me doing what I do even if I don’t know why I’m doing it. I’ve given up trying to understand how in one moment I can be fine with something and in another moment it’s completely unacceptable to me. I guess that’s called growth or evolving or being cold-hearted.
One of my friends, Dee, used the expression, “the casualties of my growth” when she was referring to the people who were no longer in her life because of what she needed to do for herself. I understand that one. Sometimes it’s just necessary to move on, whether it’s a job, a relationship, living arrangement or quitting smoking.
I’m not sure how everything fits together here in life. I just know that when it’s time for me to move on, for whatever reason, I get really uncomfortable in the situation until I get out. It happens by chance that I get into things and it happens by chance that I need to get out of things. Please forgive me if you’ve ever been a casualty of my growth.
Blessings!
