There Is A Process For Every Manifestation
Posted on
There is a process that has to be gone through in order to realise every manifestation, or to put it another way, it's all about the journey. Something happened to me yesterday that illustrated this point to me so clearly, and like everyone else sometimes I forget what I know, and this was a fabulous reminder that everything really is working out for me. If you will allow me to, I would like to share this particular journey with you....
So here in the UK, we are currently experiencing a heatwave, and I've also just discovered sea swimming, so the two go great together. Yesterday though was something else, as much as I was dying to go for a swim, having to go out in the sun to get to the beach just felt like too much, so I kind of hid at home in the shade for much of the day. Then at around 4.45 whilst sitting in the garden I got this really strong urge to pack some food, put on my swimsuit and head to the beach. I walked into the house, where my housemate was at that moment struggling with her sewing machine, and she asked if I could help. I was happy to, the longer I waited to head out, the cooler I knew it would be so there was no issue. By the time I'd sorted out the machine, my stomach was starting to tell me to feed it, which again was fine as it meant I'd eat and that would be over with. I ended leaving the house around 6.00, I had an idea which part of the beach I was heading to, but it was 5 miles away so I thought if I could find something closer I would settle for that. So I cycled along the seafront, stopping every so often to look at the beach and see if there was a 'spot', but there was nothing, it was so, so busy, again not a problem cos I knew where I was thinking of would be much quieter. As it turned out I ended up going to exactly the spot I had originally thought of, it was really peaceful, not many people go there because parking is very limited, too far for most walkers so for cyclists its perfect. So I walked along the beach, found a nice spot, and sat - there were a few people about, and being alone I was aware that I needed to keep an eye on my bag, so I just sat for a bit to be sure that I felt comfortable with the people around me. Eventually I decided to just go for it, and headed to the sea. It was so calm, I felt so peaceful, and it was a huge relief to feel the water wash over me given how hot it was. I stayed in the water for maybe half an hour, I'm not a strong swimmer but I can swim and I love to just lie on my back and float whilst staring at the sky. So when I felt like I'd had enough, out I got, it was still incredibly warm, so I just sat on my towel and let the air dry me, plus I was just watching people in the water, there were some children playing on paddle boards, couples with their children, people taking photos, just all the normal things people do at the beach. I have no idea how long I sat there, but eventually I realised I was dry and figured it was probably time to head home, so I pulled on my clothes, stood up, and was about to leave when something caught my eye, for a split second I thought there was a hole in the sky, but when I turned and looked properly I saw this..................
.....and it took my breath away! There was probably a one minute window for seeing that view, and I was standing in the best place in the whole of the city for seeing it. And then I understood, my day had been all over the place, and it didn't matter because I was just enjoying the process, but Tru had a plan all along, to show me this magnificent cloud formation, and had guided my day incrementally to ensure that I was in the right place at the right time.
