One of the websites I pulled up today had butterflies fluttering all across the screen. The site was playing great music so I left it on as I wondered around the kitchen.
I caught some movement out of the corner of my eye. When I looked to see what it was, I laughed. My cute red kitten otherwise known as Mr. Perky was batting at the screen. He was trying to catch the butterfies with his tongue; he tried everything he could think of to no avail. They were so close yet so far away. He tried to capture at least one of them for what seemed like forever. Finally exhausted he jumped, to the floor and eyed them hungrily from a distance. Of course it was a battle he could never win; because what he was reaching for was plain out of his reach.
How is this like life? How often do we desperately go after or fight for things, jobs, relationships… that we know are not meant for us.
Fortunately unlike a cat, we have an inner voice that whispers to us. It may say “hang in there”, “or it’s not time”, or perhaps it tells us “no” this person, thing or job is not for you.
Instead of feeling angry or cheated, trust the voice. What it’s really saying is, if you will trust me I have something far better in store for you. When we start to listen and trust the voice, we are connecting with our destiny and living “Life on Purpose.” Get my favorite quotes.
