"The Chance Of A Lifetime"


This is a phrase made popular in songs, lottery ticket sales and television song, dance and talent shows. A phrase that conjures the idea that each of us is only eligible for one life-changing or defining moment chance in our life.

My contention is that the greater truth lies in reversing the sentence. It should read: A lifetime of chances are available to each of us.  Each of us arrive at this place that some call our Earth School with hundreds of chances to make changes in our lives for the better. But for each chance that arises for a change to be made,the issue comes down to what kind of choice do we intend to make?

Do we decide to choose with contemplative forethought and care, or merely by whim or emotional impulse? What say you, dear guiding intuition?

My tip here?  Find or get to a place where it is silent, where there is no noise, distraction or chaos. Since your intuition speaks to you in a low, quiet voice, you will hear it best in a place or locale of solitude.

Call it staying calibrated with your own inner compass or GPS (Global Positioning Spirit).
