I saw the most beautiful photograph yesterday. And for some
reason I could not stop thinking about it.
I could not get it out of my head.
It was like a message was being sent to me that I needed but I could not comprehend what it was.
I sent a message to the person who took the photo telling
him how awesome I thought it was. To which he responded he was out walking and the
timing was perfect to capture the photo.
And then I knew exactly what message was being sent to me.
Life is about being in the right place at the right time. And that does not
mean we have to go out trying to find the perfect moment. Or even the right time. It means we have to
be present in all surroundings, all situations, and everywhere we are at all times
because every situation presents us with an opportunity.
Sometimes the opportunity comes simply disguised in an
innocent walk in the morning. Sometimes it comes during tumultuous times. Opportunity often comes when we least expect it because that’s when it is the
purest.
It is often in our silence. In our acceptance of where we
are. In our place of gratitude. Solitude and Peace that the clearest answers
come. It is not in the expected, forced or plotted.
This photograph of the cruise ship in the middle of the rock
is a perfect example of being ready when we least expect opportunity. Being
open to the Universe to the abundance, gifts and treasures it offers us every
single day. My friend didn’t know that by posting his photo that he became my
angel for the day. Shining his light on me by helping me to remember that life
is all about being in the right place at the right time. Without looking for
it. Without expecting it. But being open to all that the Universe has to offer
and being grateful for its abundance.
It also reminded me that we are always where we are meant to
be. It’s just sometimes we are more prepared than others. And more importantly sometimes
we are more open to receive the gifts and treasures of the Universe than other times.
Take a look at this perfect photo taken by an ordinary
person on an ordinary walk on an ordinary day. Yet he was able to capture the
extraordinary in an ordinary moment by being extraordinarily present and open
to Universe in the right place at the right time.
