Early yesterday morning, I was driving down a ramp
running past this church heading towards the highway. A deer came bounding across the highway ahead of me. I was still going slow and able to stop (and luckily the guy behind me stopped too). I know this
happens all the time in 
If in my delusional
subjectivity , I believed the universe was sending me a message, it would be
this: You can live in two worlds: the forest and the city, and
occasionally the creative natural part of you can leap up and STOP TRAFFIC, if
you have to.
Or maybe the
message from the universe is simply, "Lil, like this friggin' deer, you
are LOST. Figure out where home is and where you can be safe and go there."
Jewish
philosopher, Richard Rubenstein wrote: "We
stand in a cold, silent, unfeeling cosmos unaided by any purposeful power
beyond our own resources." I'm inclined to agree, but the universe gives us so much, so much.
It's fun to imagine it is a sentient, engaged universe sending me mysteries to unravel. What messages do you get from the universe?
