Is It Destiny or Something Else?

When I look back at various stages of my life, I have come to realize that my sense of destiny was most probably started at an early age. I’ve known since I was a child that I could do things but in a manner that was in a way that would be of worth.

During my earlier years I was bored to death with teachers that had no passion in what they were teaching. You could see that so obviously.  There were times that I knew what I set out to do, that I could visualize it and with that all done – most often I did and within this stage of my life I am doing the same thing in a different manner. In life that is. I will take an idea and just let it flow and then come back to it. I find that the great things that had come about usually were done by way of my own desires. I never looked to consider the things that my friends thought – as everyone was following the norm. I really for the life of me to this day don’t know what this word “norm” really means. I guess what I am leading to is that without too much thought but with surrounding myself with the people that are of worth and are on that save wavelength usually has some value that brings about something of worthiness.

It’s an ideal that everything in life is infinite, but the possibilities that one has are ones in which are something that I have come to realize as a gateway to the areas of thinking on several levels. At the same time simplicity is something that is doing things without thinking about it but just doing it without repercussion.

Coincidences do happen in life, I often ponder why they happen and last week while I was attending a meeting that I had when I left the office, I found that there was this older lady that for no reason came up to me and said hello.  She actually was around an age that was around 70 years of age. So I took the time to sit down with her and she asked me whom I was. I honestly am not being arrogant here. But this has happened more times than just one.

I explained to here a little about myself and then she said that I exude a certain quality that will take me a far way. Once again I can’t tell you how much I am not playing this as I write it. It’s happened several times in different manners in different cities. So I took in what she had to say, I am one that does respect my peers especially people that are older or as mentioned are on that certain wave.

Then it came to who she was. She is a Nun and elder retired one that does some very interesting charity work. In person, you could still see that sparkle in her eyes. She had met Mother Teresa, she has traveled to the Middle East as well as Latin America. She had even seen two Popes within her lifetime and has now started an organization that helps the unfortunate in several places around the world. 

 

She pulled out her card from her purse and told me that she would like to meet with me and talk more as she seemed to understand more about me than I had ever imagined. I was in a rush but everything seemed to take as stop and slowed right down. She said that the reason that she was asking me was that she was watching me, and she could tell that I had a very good manner of presenting myself in the way I was talking - as I was with a few people, but she said that it was in how I was presenting myself.

It truly baffled me.  I am sure she has seen several different people of all different walks of life. I am no angel, I just have always thought in a manner. At a very young age I was always considered more mature than most of the children of the same age even my older siblings, which did cause some friction still to this day.

So although this picture seemed to be something that many would not know whom she was. She was a nun that had experienced many things in here life. I will meet her again, as she wished to meet at sometime. I find that at this age of my life regardless of any matter I am aspiring in a direction that is leading me somewhere. Not just within the normal areas such as work or otherwise. Perhaps the reason from that is that I have always gained in learning from elders. Now at this stage of my life I am moving within a certain area but the direction it’s leading towards is never truly realize till it happens, I certainly work hard within these days. Maybe with destiny it’s something that comes about in the manner in which I have renewed my placement, as well as found the center core of my own values and desires. I know many people making up stories but this is truly a very honest write. I have never thought on a level that all that I have experience in life was leading me in a manner that would unveil its self in this way.

I am no idealist, I think quite frankly that I am very realistic, but at the same time have the compassion and interest in the contacts that I have made within my past as well as in the present. I am a very active person that has been swayed now and then, but it’s seems that I have relinquished my goals, without even knowing what they were. I suppose that would most probably be due to the choices I have made in a manner that gives way to the spirit of wealth which does not mean money for me, as I see it as a by product of what we do in our lives.  Have you ever got on the phone and called someone that you have not talked too in a few years and within seconds they are ecstatic and right away now it’s you?

Making a long story short. I am ordinary yet I am myself. This elder religious lady touched me like many others but in an extraordinary manner. As she has done things and now at an age of retirement – she does things that I so wish to do in another manner when I reach that age of 65.  This has been a long write. Yet when I see things and wonder why? I think of things that never were and I say to myself – why not. As it has so many possibilities that it lends itself too.

 

So this lady last week made an impact on me, and I will meet her. When that happens I am not sure but realistically, I will call her and there after set something up for the following weekend. Here too things may change, but regardless it shall happen. What will be the outcome of it – I have no idea, I probably will leave empowered perhaps in some manner, as she certainly was not senile, she was very youthful for her age. Yet very experienced and not as serious as her image looks was what she was.

Perhaps I am looking at a reflection in a different manner...
