Anomaly

Indelible moments are those that come so close together it is difficult to tell one from the other.  They are the mile markers in an ordinary life.

Slightly bolder, brighter ruts are the ones that set the tone for all the others. It pays to pay attention!

Going through life focused on that apparition in the mirror is like being mesmerized by a ghost, because that thing in the mirror is merely a jumping off point for the real you.

The mystery of life lies within all of us.  The power and magic, the eternal connections, the stuff of fairy tales and spirituality is indigenous to the whole human race.

We are mostly limited by what we notice and understand, by what we believe in strongly enough to manifest.

Finding another person so closely linked to us that we never have to explain ourselves to him or her means we have connected at one of the deepest levels.  That is an anomaly I never expected to find.

And then, four years  ago, I began to notice a difference in my life, a lessening of alone-ness, a feeling of being more . . .  an understanding that there was, at least, one other human being who understood me as well as, or more than, I did myself.

There were no strings tying us together.  Our freedom was not limited in any way except perhaps that we were even more free. Our connection was simply to love the other so much that we wanted the best for him, or her. 

It felt surreal and yet it is the deepest, most real experience I can imagine.  One that has enriched my life immeasurably.  One I still barely believe exists, although it does.

It is a true anomaly in a world where reflections seldom go beyond the mirror.
