It was late at night, shortly after I had finished writing the rough draft of that story, when Brian called me to have a look in our atrium.
I couldn’t believe what I saw!
So many snails gathered together on the rocks (See the picture above) in our atrium and, of course, not a snail shell in sight! As best as I could tell, I’d say there were at least fifteen snails.
Little did I know when I began work on a project many weeks ago that it would lead to an inspirational story. And as the project is coming very close to completion, I have been noticing how focused I am.
I have also noticed signs from nature.
How much attention do you pay to what is going on in nature?
Have you ever noticed the trees waving to you?
What insights does nature hold for you?
Now that I have learned the value of nature awareness, I am more grateful for the gifts nature gives us. And I pay close attention to nature. When I say that, I don’t mean listening to or watching the weather news unless I know very bad weather looms nearby. And even then, I don’t pay that much attention to it. When Hurricane Ike boldly whirled through our area last year, I slept through it.
One night a couple of weeks ago after heavy rain, as Brian walked by the atrium in our house he noticed something sparkling on the atrium ground. He summoned me to have a look.
What we saw was a sparkling, glittery irregular spiral line. Brian noticed a snail without a shell by the sparkly trail, and it was then we knew that the sparkling trail was left by a snail, a gift to us. The gift remained for several days, until a heavy rain washed it away.
Years ago I never thought I would enjoy seeing a snail in our atrium. After all, there were a lot of snails in there back then, eating our wandering jew plants while destroying their lovely leaves. We did our best to get rid of those pesky destructive snails, and finally we no longer saw snails or the shells that protected them.
I’m not sure when we began to see snails without shells inside our house near the atrium door.
Snails in Our House!
Maybe it began a year ago, but it has occurred quite a few times since. It was a mystery to us how they got inside and why we never saw their shells…
A few months ago I heard Ben Mack speaking about Good EnergyDay. That’s when I first heard about what happens on 09/09/09 and a global movement of peace, love and harmony.
Since there’s an entire website dedicated to this movement, you can learn all about it there: htp://goodenergymovement.com/
A great song to go along with this is ‘Imagine’ by John Lennon. You can watch a YouTube video of it here:
In a previous post ‘What’s Your Plan for Making Peace’, I gave you the lyrics to my song ‘Arise With Peace’, and here they are again:
Ready for another story? Since money problems concern so many people, I’ve got another story for you on that topic.
On Sunday while going through my emails I saw one that had an urgent subject line. Since it was from someone whom I
respect, I couldn’t resist reading it.
It was quite fascinating, about some ‘insider information’.
Hmm, insider information…is that legal?
In this case it is!
Although that email had some very compelling information, I didn’t think it was right for me so much as it was for other people I know. And the email was time-sensitive, but since I already had plans for the rest of the day, I didn’t get the chance to let anyone else know about it.
Monday morning as I set my intentions for the day during my spiritual time, I was reminded of that email. And I knew that the information it contained was very right for me.
As I’ve mentioned before, I have a big dream of founding a charity that will help poor children and orphans. It’s going to take a lot of money to fulfill that dream, so I’m always on the lookout for ways to make money in a time-efficient way.
Further confirmation came as we approached the park for our morning walk in nature.
