Today, as I sat on the beach with Bella. I reflected on creating a video on manifestation. I was thinking of all the ways things have shifted in me throughout the past week, when I opened up my heart more. It was the final missing piece for manifestation, that I didn’t realize I was lacking. I have been focusing on my heart chakra through doing heart opening yoga sequences and mantras, but also felt a sense of it being broken open the other day. This was from the mere thought of fostering a dog. I have yet to decide if and when I will do this, but the mere thought of this act of love shifted something in me. After the grief of losing one dog, and being an emotional caretaker for numerous people and a psychologist, I felt there was no space in my heart for anyone and anything else. This was a catalyst.
After that thought occurred, I began to see changes in my reality. The Law of Attraction was at work. I received scholarships for two online courses I have been eyeing. One is on the Black Madonna and the other is on Self Compassion. Both I had applied for various scholarships from these organizations before and never received it. And several other positive events occurred during the week. It was a week filled of joyous unexpected abundance. I wanted to share this news with others. I had my bikini on, and was going to put my shirt back on to film the video. I looked down and saw this.
A bird had pooped on it, during the minutes my shirt was off. And it wasn’t just any poop, it was in the shape of a heart. It was hilarious to me. I am already the type of person to believe that a bird pooping on you can be good luck. It’s all in the reframing. But the fact it pooped on my shirt that was in the shape of a heart, was more comedic.
I posted this on social media, and my father noted “have fun getting the stain off.” I had to share with him, you are missing the point. It doesn’t matter what happens with the shirt. It was seeing the blessing and humor in this situation versus getting upset. In letting it go, perhaps it would create more space in my life for the next thing.
