I have been living in Los Angeles for almost two years and in that time period I have been fortunate to witness a recurring trend in my life.
What is not meant for me is taken away and that which is best for me is always provided.
This may sound divine in nature and it may very well be, but the Universe is all encompassing and thus should sufficiently cover all of my bases.
There have been dozens of instances where I've wanted something: a new job, a new car, a new relationship, more money, to move to a nicer building, etc. and none of these things was ultimately meant for me to have at the time I wanted them most. However, disappointment is not something that ever lingered for very long. In being in tune with the Universe, I simply chose to believe that an opportunity or want not granted to me was simply not meant for me to have at that time.
I recently accepted a new job with a fantastic company that is literally based a half mile from my home. I couldn't have asked for a better commute nor a more welcoming environment. But this instance of good fortune comes on the heals of me previously declining another opportunity that would have moved me to a place where I knew I would not be as happy as I am where I currently live.
So, I took a risk and asked the Universe to guide me where I needed to be and to my delight, I am staying right where I have been for almost two years; where I have been the happiest I have ever been in my entire life. This is not to say that I just sat down and waited for whatever was meant for me to miraculously fall into my lap. Through a lot of hard work and research, I was able to narrow the scope of my job hunt to a few specific companies and I prepared meticulously to present myself as the most viable candidate. I just feel that the Universe pointed me in the right direction.
Los Angeles, for all is grit, trash, superficiality, smog and traffic, encompasses so many wonderful things. I adore the relationships I have with my friends and family here, the weather is fantastic ... I could go on and on but the point is, I am writing this blog post feeling as though I am being taken care of. I feel incredibly fortunate and I do not believe this consistent good fortune would be shinning upon me if I was not grateful in light of my struggles and missed opportunities.
Show some gratitude and let the Universe move you.
