Faith

 

Trusting in the universe sounds very spiritual and even a bit melodramatic.

If you asked me I would say that I like to know what is happening and how it will occur, but honestly my world tends to work in almost magical ways.

My ex husband, as he was walking out on our last counseling session, looked back at our counselor and said, "You don't have to worry about her, things always work out for her." And they do generally, but having faith in that happening is a whole different thing.

My accountant said something similar as she helped me file my income tax for last year. I had a huge amount to pay because of the scam, but we figured out a way for me to do it and she remarked that I often seem to find a way to make things work.

Today some dear friends decided they wanted to give me a check to help me out. A gift! A very nice, very large gift and it reminded me of how karma can work.

Faith will probably always be hard for me, because I hate to be disappointed I tend to expect very little and am amazed when life turns out to be bountiful.
