I love that!!! Sonia Choquette said that, and I added "fall in love with life"...........and when Life aligns with you, How freakin good is that.
Want an example.......real life? Here you go!!!
I've been watching the coverage of the Haiti earthquake on Anderson Cooper 360.......for the purpose of contemplating life in alignment. One of the stories is about an orphanage that is run by two sisters from Pennsylvania. You may be familiar with the story, but if not it is very telling about life and alignment. You have these two young sisters (doing what they love and loving life)running the orphanage with like 54 children who are all in various stages of being adopted by American families. BAM!!! The earthquake hits and destroys the part of the orphanage that the sisters and children are not in at the time the quake hits. Nobody is hurt!!!!
John Tuchman, the CNN reporter happens to find them gathered in the courtyard living because the building is too damaged to go back inside. He does a segment on the sisters and children, it airs and two different sets of the adoptive parents from America see the story and then know that their adoptive children are safe.
John interviews the two sisters who explain that all is well except that the adoption paperwork and the Haitian government officials that were working on the adoptions have all perished in the government building that housed their offices and files. They explain that it is about an 18 month process to get approval for the kids to leave the country and join their new families in America. In the background is the group of children who are well behaved, nobody crying or acting out, just being children.
Two days later, Life aligns for the sisters, the children and the adoptive parents and approval is given for the children to leave Haiti and go to America. A military c-140 flies them to Miami where all but 14 of the children are united with their adoptive families. The 14 that were not allowed to join their adoptive families were not far enough along in the process.......so the two Sisters from Pennsylvania decide to open a foster home in Pennsylvania and those children are the first 14 to make the home!! They will join their adoptive parents as soon as the process is completed.
Think about the syncronicities that took place to facilitate this story.......half the orphanage collapses during the quake, the children and two sisters are in the other half and are unhurt. John Tuchman finds them as he is walking around Port Au Prince looking for stories to report on. Two separate adoptive families see the report and their child amongst the 54. Approval is given for the children to leave the country and they unite with their new families......and how many other details that just fell into place.........ah, excuse me, fell into alignment?
Life, The Universe, Source, God....whatever you call it works in the most unlikely ways.
"The day will come when, after harnessing space, the winds, the tides, gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies of love. And, on that day, for the second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire." Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
