It’s the news no one wants to hear. “Due to cost cutting measures, your position has been eliminated.”\u00a0 A job that I had been recruited for and dove into for more than a year, is no longer. My initial reaction was a mild emotional freak-out that turned into a sense of knowing that all is well and in Divine Order. This ideal\u00a0full time writing job had been ‘on loan to me’ as I was able to work from home, make my own schedule and be well compensated in the process. Knowing that nothing is certain, I had evoked the spirit of Buddhism and the concept of impermanence. Since being informed, I immediately launched into action mode. I updated my resume, contacted a few places for which I would like to write, put out feelers on social media, told friends what I was looking for and created a list of the qualities of the ideal job.<\/p>\n
I also reminded myself of the mantra I used prior to this job: “I work for God and the salary and benefits are out of this world.” These words, like many, came to me in a dream. I trust their validity and know that they are powerful.<\/p>\n
Trust has become\u00a0a key component of my life as I do the Nestea Plunge and fall back into the arms of Spirit. It has never dropped me and often comes up with ideas that are far better for me than the ones I was pursuing.<\/p>\n
Tonight it occurred to me that even though I am applying for what I think I want, the job might show up that is not directly related to my particular efforts. When we toss out into the Universe what we say desire and do the leg work, magic happens. I get the sense that it is opening me up for some pretty big leaps and changes.<\/p>\n
I can, with absolute clarity, say that when one door has closed in my life, another, even more brilliant one has opened widely and beckoned me to enter. Scary at times, as I wonder what is on the other side of it. Comforting to know that whatever awaits will be spectacular.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
