This morning, I woke up with no enthusiasm and didn’t feel like doing anything. Perhaps it was the nightmare I had that made my morning blue.
Do you recall the moment when a dream just left you feeling weary?
A dream where it took all the rest from your sleep.
That’s what it looks like.
I woke up early because of that and did some of my daily responsibilities.
After finishing it, I took a nap again because I felt like I needed it since I had been feeling down earlier.
Waking up from my nap, there were noticeable events that occurred again from my dream.
The first one was when a relative tried to convince someone to do a certain thing but it wasn’t working.
I went there and spoke calmly and lo behold, it’s as smooth as it can be.
He was trying to convince her for a long time and yet I just did it in a few seconds.
I don’t know, it felt like magic.
The second one was when someone noticed my shoulders and gave them a tap. It was a compliment for working on my shoulder muscularity.
At first, I thought it was just a physical gesture but it turns out it wasn’t. If it was, it wouldn’t have a lasting effect and wouldn’t happen the second time around.
That felt something personal.
The third one was when I was at a mall walking down while on my phone. Someone just randomly tapped both of my shoulders and said “Great shoulders! Continue working on it”.
Someone just wanted to get my attention since I was on my phone.
But you wouldn’t do that to a stranger, right?
I feel like it wasn’t random, or a coincidence. It’s a very subjective discussion since our dreams are personal.
But here I am wanting to document what I’ve gone through and what I’m seeing from it.
Shoulder tap is a universal gesture to us humans.
One of the reasons we do it is to get someone’s attention, assure them that you’ll be there for them, and many more.
And I think that’s what God wants me to see it.
I’ve been on a weird life transition right now and he’s been telling me to carry on, I’ll be there for you.
That’s what I’ve realized while writing this story — which is a kind of reflection too for me.
I believe it’s not random, and it’s not just a normal occurrence. I think it was those subtle moments that just take your life into pause and make you reflect on what happened.
Well, whatever it is — I know I’m guided by a higher power. As I continue to navigate this unknown life transition, I know I’m guided.
I’m guided.
I’m not alone.
