Last time I took you so deep inside my head, my over analyzing and fears, that I wanted to slow it down, show you another direction that from time to time can give your exhausted mind some hope, To sometimes let yourself look at your surrounding with a playful mind can be just what you soul needs to keep on going.
I written about signs, sometimes true and sometimes lovely and ridiculously crazy. I told you about how I sometimes ask for something that would guide me in the right direction .. so that you would know what to do.
Do you sometimes believe in Magic ?
That last summer when I, for what would be the last time, was heading back from the island to that life I never seemed to be able to truly call my home, something happened.We had to get a ride from strangers to get to the last bus.
There was an old couple, coming from another island, that were headed the same way. They where delighted to help and as we continued with the journey we got to hear about their life. He was a doctor and she was and counselor and a therapeutic artist, a painter, sculpturer as well as a writer. They had lived in Africa for a big part of their life,they they had followed their hearts, She had followed him there and now he was following her. She had a gallery, out on that Island.
We had strawberries that were filling the back seat and as we got on with they journey and they continued to share their story I realized that life could be so sweet.
So was it magic, was it meant for me to meet these two ? Sometimes I wonder, and believing that something guiding is out there helps me to let myself trust in something that is new. I dont always have to have the answer, sometimes an old couple with strawberries will tell that to you.
As we left them she gave me her card, a courageous African lion that I still have and look at during times when I fear that it all may fall apart.
