I had been on a spiritual journey for some time, discovering a power greater than myself in Spirit and seeking a relationship with it. Progress was slow but steady. I remember being in a great deal of pain after a relationship had ended. The heartbreak was deep and I was experiencing this kind of pain, fully, for the first time in my life. I couldn’t bear it, I couldn’t manage it, I couldn’t run, eat, or busy myself through it. I simply had to experience it. This, I could not do, alone. I reached for the hand of my God Source, Spirit of the Universe, and found myself held and comforted.
Shortly thereafter I was driving to work on the same route I’d been taking the past year and a half. But something was different. As I drove up this steep mountain road I noticed the trees on both sides of the road were leaning so far over the street it looked like I was in a tunnel of trees. It took my breath away! I gasped! I had never noticed the beauty of these trees, the deep greens, reds, and yellows. I never noticed I was driving in a tunnel of breathtaking, beautiful trees. I began to cry. It was an amazing awakening. I was seeing the world differently for the first time. I wasn’t the same.
This awakening spiritually moved me in a new direction. I began to seek. As I awakened I began to notice strange coincidences. They were happening with regularity. It first started with numbers, 1:11 11:11, 12:12, 2:22, numbers on the clock. It felt like everytime I randomly looked at my phone or the clock in my car, one of these numbers would be there! I started taking picutres of the time whenever it happened. It was beautiful. It became a normal daily occurance. I felt connected by it. This was my first true awareness of synchronicity. I became aware that there was a power working in the universe, and it was speaking to me.
