Perspective

I started going to acupuncture recently. Initially it was to treat a sore neck, which my acupuncturist fixed right up in the first two sessions, but I've continued going because, well, those treatments leave me feeling really good. I'm also about half way through a cleanse right now - seemed a fitting thing to do since I'm in on a trajectory of clearing out all manner of physical and emotional clutter from my life. The cleanse, the acupuncture - they're now a part of that process.

I had an acupuncture appointment on Friday that left me feeling reallllly good - we did a little work for the neck, hit some spots to aid with detoxification. Then there was this fabulous relaxation spot right in the middle of my forehead - ahhhh. I slept like the dead  through some of the appointment, and spent the rest in a state of calm and bliss; feeling all was right with the world. I emerged from the session all noodle-y and happy, and in my amble through the rain and back to my car I made a detour past a Thai place to check out the menu for future reference. There to the right of the entrance was a sign that read:

And in my euphoric, life-loving, open and fully relaxed state of mind I thought: "Yes! That's right, DO NOT HESITATE TO REQUEST CHANGE!!! Make it happen! Thank you for that poignant reminder, Universe!" How auspicious! How remarkable!

As I stood there a half a beat longer, I bothered to read the sign in it's entirety. I realized it read:

Oh. Right.

Anyway, I say read those little messages from the Universe as you see fit.
