Some
moments are worth re-telling, some aren’t.
I debated
on the re-telling of this morning’s “experience” simply because it’s something
most people would smile at but not take the thought process beyond that.
That’s
where I and “most people” part ways.
I believe
we’re given messages all the time from whatever Power you believe in, or don’t
believe in, whatever the case may be. I
also believe we are not alone. We are
watched constantly and given guidance but most of the time we’re too focused on
our humanness and less in tune with any space beyond that.
Our bad.
My morning
began as most do, around 5ish-6ish, shades are drawn with light peeking through
the cracks. Willy is awake but not
restless yet and it’s “my” time to push the coffeemaker into action, bump up
the heater thermostat, fire up my computer and log some work hours before the
day overtakes me.
However
this morning my first move of the day was directly to the bathroom to do what
we do in the morning before we begin our day, pee.
While
seated on the throne I open the blinds covering the bathroom window (of course
it’s within reach …. small RV spaces allow most tasks to be within arm’s reach)
to see how much blue sky was out there.
I’m
greeted with the sight of a fully grown, extremely healthy looking doe
approximately 50 feet away, looking directly into my eyes, gracefully squatted and
peeing.
Now I’ve
had some Ah-Ha moments in my life but this was a definite double-take Ah-Ha
moment!
Is this
what’s called “being one with nature????”
I’m sure
there is a doe out there today telling her version of this story, about her
experience this morning with a person giving her a “human in the headlights”
look while she was relieving herself.
Unfortunately
I was too taken aback by this sequence of events to get my camera and/or phone
to snap evidence of this moment but the picture will live forever in my mind
and undoubtedly bring many hours of thoughtful contemplation.
Perhaps
it’s a message to not take myself, or my day, so seriously, to take time to
smell the roses and stuff like that.
Perhaps
it’s a reminder that sometimes it’s the most mundane, necessary acts that bind
us all to a much larger consciousness.
And
perhaps it was two females needing to pee at the same time, in approximately
the same place.
At least we
use different facilities and there wasn’t’ a line….
Ain’t life
fascinating!!
Priceless! Reminders to be open to experiencing life comes in many forms...sometimes it really is the little things. Thanks for sharing your morning story :)
