Hide & Seek
March 10, 2009 by Mary Wynne-Wynter
My granddaughters loved to play hide and seek with me. I’d hear them crazily running from room to room, laughing and calling my name. Sometimes, when I’d have a great hiding spot, and they couldn’t find me, their footsteps would get a little tentative and their voices more plaintive as they called for me. At that point I’d thump or knock on the floor or wall to let them know I was in the house. I’d hear them get very still and whisper until they could sense the direction of my clues. Then they’d get right back into their joy in the game, knowing they’d find who they were seeking, sometimes hidden right in front of them.
Have you been looking really hard for a long time for a new life direction? Have you been caught up in a cycle of excitement and anxiety? Try stopping, being very still and listening for the “knock knock” of your intuition (muse inner voice, guide, God – your call), trusting in it completely and willing to receive whatever jumps out of the hiding place.
