Ive started a 40 day spiritual journey. Im currently on Day 2. This journey is written out in a book, each chapter representing that days lesson or exploration. Its very strange to have to stop at the end of a chapter and wait till the following night to continue on to the next because Im an avid reader and could easily read an entire book in one sitting... well, before I became a mommy I easily could.
So far the journey has been rather easy in the way that I already live in the way the author describes.
Day 1 was: Its not all about you.
I know this, I do have to remind myself here and there, but a refresher never hurts.
Day 2: You are no accident.
Basically, everything happens for a reason (which is one belief I have always had since I was a child). Mind you, I had never applied it to my own conception before. Strange I never thought to do that. My creation was meant to be.
It reminds me of this episode of Angel (you know, the vampire with a soul), where its revealed how these little bits and pieces of their lives (some insignificant, others not so much) all lead up to this final moment, to make it all possible. A grand design.
I whole heartily believe that things happen for a reason, even when you are unable to see that reason yourself. Now I just remember to apply it to not just the now and the close past, but the long ago past as well.
Because, its not all about me.
