Quite often I find things that I am not sure what they are. You know, like an idea that just doesn't fit into your scheme of how life should be. These things come in the form of inspirations, imaginings, daydreams and the like. They just seem to come from nowhere, completely out of the blue. It is as if you are being struck by lightning. There you were, minding your own business, going about your normal activities when suddenly it hits you: this electrical charge that zaps you from head to toe and shakes every atom of your being. You can't escape. You are frozen and just hope you survive to tell the tale.
Well, I guess I am thinking about this because yesterday we had a series of thunderstorms sweep through Southern California. It brought down-pouring rain, flashing light in the heavens and rolling thunder that shivered me timbres as it were. It was all very unusual here in the land of eternal sunshine where we are in our sixth year of draught. But it just shows to go you, anything can happen...especially when you least expect it.
So I've decided that when I find something, or something finds me, and it just doesn't quite seem to fit, I need to just hold on and see what develops. I may not be sure what those things are, but they are something. It is not up to them to come with labels. It is up to me to be patient, maybe meditate a bit, and then, when I least expect it, all shall be revealed.
