What Do The Signs Mean?

What Do All The Signs Mean?

by Debbie Laughlin

Numbers, animals, words, music, etc., are just few examples of the gifts of knowledge woven into our daily experiences. It is very easy to neglect these signs because they are just far too common for the most part, and we are far too are busy to notice them. Then, there is this crazy idea that we need fireworks and lightening to enlighten us, which is not the case.

Divine messages are subtle and poignant. They come in to guide us, to nudge us, and to help us acknowledge life with a different reception, and the messages tend to be simple. Unfortunately, it isn’t until we are horribly inconvenienced and our natural senses are disturbed that we awaken and begin to pay attention to the signs.

So, is there really something deeper to know? That is all open to interpretation and one’s perception. If we decide to step up and dig into our habits and patterns, the odds are pretty good that the untapped information of the delicate signs are waiting for us to discover and uncover them. All we need to do is unplug for a moment.

When we take that much needed pause, we slow down the momentum of verve and timing is everything. If we become too embedded in chaos as most of are, we lose insight and the attention to details both small and large. This affects all aspects of our living, breathing day. Being harried tends to make things messy, sloppy, and become a one-way ticket to regret. We all understand a split-second action can make a huge difference, and it is no secret that the difference can be life or death. This may sound a bit dramatic, but can be the truth.

This isn’t saying you should put life on hold; it simply means pausing to take a breath or two or many in gratitude will be beneficial. With mindfulness, our practice of awareness is enhanced even when life seems to be going 100 mph. We can observe, participate and get in touch with the signals as we internally say thank you for this ability. Think of it as multitasking with the attitude of gratitude. Doing so really centers the ego. As we lean into this, we get a bigger sense of totality. When we achieve totality, it is easier to receive. So unwind, settle down, and take a moment to stop and smell the proverbial roses.
