A Star Journey

today, the sun caught my eye as it lit up a portland bridge. i saw it through my huge office window. an officemate and i walked over to the glass take in the beauty. Looking down at the river, the boats, the bridge, the hills....i whispered "I cant believe THIS is my life." i wasnt talking completely about the scenery. i mean, i was, but i was also talking about so much more. looking around i realized that my astrologer was right:

"Next May 2007, one year from now, you're about start a new cycle. Nothing in your life will look the same. Just wait."
i remember when she told me. i didnt know if i could believe her. believing those words would mean that i would have to let go of everything that was around me. everything. i cant tell you how many sleepless nights i had after that starry prediction. only that there were plenty to talk about now. six months later i couldnt stand it. i talked to my astrologer again:

"Its like you're on a plane and your about to land. but....you dont know where you are going to land. all you know is...you have to wait. sit back and read a good book because having anxiety about it wont do you any good. call me when you've landed."
the next six months were painful. whatever i was doing in my life then seemed....all for not. or was it? i couldnt even imagine the picture of everything being different from what it was then. i had no idea how this was all going to pan out.....
looking out my office window today. the sun shining upon Portland. how had i traversed so many miles so quickly? how had things changed so effortlessly? how did i make it here so synchronistically? how did i come to survive such a drastic shift in my reality?
it's amazing how the tides in life can change direction so quickly. looking around i see that everything now is exactly what i wanted long ago. it was what i dreamed for myself to be one day. honestly, i never really thought it would happen to me. that i would get everything my imagination conjured. but i lived my way right into it. as if all my stars just fell right into place. just like that....
