Tuning Into Wisdom

 

I had a dream last night.

And in that dream a wise woman I’ve long admired was in my home, a sleep-over planned.

Pajamas, soul-satisfying conversations and laughter all present and accounted for.

It was the most perfect of nights, until that moment I asked the question closest to my heart.

She closed her eyes, deep in thought…then plumped up her pillow and pinned me with a look.

“You’ll figure it out. Trust yourself.”

And with that profound statement, she turned over and fell fast asleep.

I awoke with a start; the clock blinked 4:14 a.m.

On the fourteenth day of the fourth month 2013 I will turn 50 years old.

My wise woman is right.

I can trust myself.

And so can you.

  1. Hi Sandi! What a beautiful dream! I would like to trade it for the one I had last night! In it was a snatch of a recurring dream I’ve been having for years now.I’m going back to school (I’ve been away for one reason or other and am late) It’s always the same: I don’t know where my home room is or what class I’m supposed to be in or where that class is. It does fit where I am and how I feel right about now. I hope I can figure it out as you will figure out your truth.

    1. Lori As beautiful as my dream might seem, I didn’t really hearing “You’ll figure it out.” I think I was hoping for more along the  lines of “Here’s what to do next…” 
      But what I hear in your dream is that perhaps all of life is your school, so it doesn’t much matter where you are. Maybe we could figure life out together 😉

      1. Sandi Amorim Lori I know what you mean Sandi! And the dream always happens in Junior High, not High School, not university. It’s the first school I attended (elementary- junior high) I know it’s about the school of life.I hate feeling lost.

  2. Fantastic!  Yes, that’s exactly where we all find ourselves, after all.  It was nice there for a while, thinking maybe someone else held the answers but (good news/bad news?) it’s all within you.  Happy 50th.  Coming up behind you so make a good example for me!

  3. A very happy birthday for the 4th. Good to know some people are
    almost as old as me and don’t necessarily need to drink prune to stay
    regular juice, get up 4 times in the night and eat dinner at 4.30pm.

    Of course I do all those things, but I’m sure you don’t 😉

  4. Oh my goodness…this message is *the one* that keeps being placed all weekend long (and now into the week)…I get it in words….trust…now to deepen the practice!  (I’m up at 4am, I love that time of day, but the time the world around me awakens I have meditated, created, and celebrated!).  Let’s do a Livestream champagne and chocolate to celebrate your 50th!

  5. Big Bdays this year…my youngest turns 16 in April.
    I have every confidence that you will rock your day like no ones business! 😉

  6. No kidding..I DREAMT about you last night! I can’t even remember the content of the dream, except that you and I were hanging out face to face, and I kept thinking to myself how YOUNG you seemed to me!
    Perhaps I was the wise old woman in your dream last night? 🙂

    1. Sabrina at MyMiBoSo Hehe, perhaps! I’ll take my inspiration wherever I get it! 
      Right after I woke up I lay in bed for a minute or so and then thought to myself, why not get up and write this down? So I did, and here we are. 
      And one day (not someday!) you and I will definitely hang out, have fun and create together! xoS

  7. Sandi, 
    I told you that the best days are still to come … keep dreaming, keep trusting.
    be good to yourself
