My friend told me she threw all of her spiritual readings into the trash can. She's done with predictions since none seem to come true. Forget the psychiatrists too. I admire her strength.
But what about the readings I've had that came true? The palm reader was spot on when she said he'd ask me to marry him again 3 yrs after we divorced. The marriage would be a good one but I'd have to make a tough decision. I openly laughed. She didn't look too pleased with my reaction.
3yrs later to the month, a series of synchronistic events placed me in the same town as my ex-husband. The least I could do was have coffee him, I had loved him and hoped we'd be friends. Coffee turned to lunch which turned to late afternoon and another marriage proposal.
"WHAT?" escaped from my mouth as a whisper.
"Marry me again. We'll skip Vegas this time and have a proper wedding, have a kid, live happily ever after" he casually repeated.
I took a long suspicious look at him realizing he was absolutely serious. The wild haired palm reader said it would be a good marriage. Could I risk more pain? As he ordered another beer I realized my heart was not willing to go there. After we parted I prayed to anyone who would listen that I had made the right decision. I can't remember but I'm sure later that night I threw iching coins.

Was that my only chance at happiness? Yeah, yeah I know that love is found from within and no one can make someone else happy. Hey, I like sharing my life with someone. Don't you?
Why is it so hard to live in the moment?
