The last day of May was a cool one. It was 8°C during my morning walk. A bit of a breeze made it feel much cooler… a windchill on the last day of May. Huh. Sometimes I wonder what Mother Nature is up to… menopause perhaps?

During my walk, I decided I would dedicate June – the month, not my mother – to actively looking for signs from the Universe. Signs are everywhere and ever present. If you don’t see a sign it’s because you’re not present, not open and not looking for them.

I get so wrapped up in all that is going on around me, stuck in my head, worrying about nothing, being preoccupied with nothing that truly matters, that I forget I’m not alone in this crazy game of life. I have an amazing support system guiding me and cheering me on every second of every moment of every day of my entire life’s journey. If I don’t hear them or see them, that’s on me. It’s because I’m in my head, focusing on the stuff that doesn’t matter, instead of being aware, being present, being open.

So my exercise for June…the month of June…is to be aware of what is going on around me. Of being aware of my thoughts and how quickly they manifest into something tangible.

So, I’m walking along and I notice the number eight (8) painted on a hydro pole. I’ve walked by this pole for three weeks now and this is the first time I’ve noticed it. Talk about being present in the moment and being aware of what’s going on around you. By the way, 8 in angel numerology is Abundance.

Back to my walk this morning. I asked myself: “What do you want.” My answer: “To be happy; to be open to love, all kinds of love, but mostly romantic love.”

Whenever I make a conscious effort to be aware of the Universal life force, it shows me hearts…everywhere. I pour olive oil into a frying pan, it settles in the shape of a heart. I look up into the sky and see heart-shaped clouds. Leaves fall at my feet, in the shape of a heart… For about a week now, hearts have been showing up. The Universe was reminding me it’s still there and wants me to reconnect. So…I’m reconnecting and am looking forward to all of the signs coming my way.

Back to my daily walk, each morning I walk a little further than the day before. Today, I made it half way down the gully, to the 1 km mark. Return trip is 2 km…Today I walked 2 km!!! I’m getting there, slowly by surely.
