About 8-10 weeks ago my partner, Sipho an I went for a morning walk on one of the local beaches. Whilst enjoying the brisk morning and searching for treasures in the sand, I came across a beautiful piece of fairly big drift wood. It looked like an old railway sleeper. I so wanted it and my heart knew it would be perfect for my Angel garden.We didnt have the car and it was to big to carry, so I asked Sipho would he fetch it later for me. Sadly later never came and it was forgotton about.
The debate of moving house quickly arose in our house not long after and I knew a change was coming. We had the option of moving closer to my mum but both of us where concerned of the effect this would have on our kids as they had taken so long to settle after our last move.
Ideally a house in the estate we lived in would be swell, but virtually impossible. The kids have good friends here and the tennis court/bsketball court, playground is not something you find in private housing estates in ireland. We had recently spotted a house up for rent in the estate but that turned out to be sold. We needed a bigger house as ours was cramped.
2 weeks ago, Sipho was of to collect one the kids from school and he came back all excited. One of our neighbors said they are leaving for america in June and are desperately looking for a good tenant. Bingo....and Sipho's face lit up as their house was the detached bigger home we wanted. He rushed back to tell me and it felt so right. Its still in the location thats best for the kids, better for my energy and has the large factor.
That evening we went to view it and we fell in love. The house also boasted sea views. What more could you want. Taking a trek out to the garden I was greeted by a beautifully manicured lawn and as I went round the gable of the house I was greeted by a beautiful piece of old railway sleeper, waiting to be homed...and I smiled secretly to myself, for it was the exact piece of wood from the beach we had seen weeks earlier, sand an all. I silently thanked the Angels and turned to the owner and said yes please can we have it.
We move in somewhere in the of June and cant wait.
The moral of this story is, you may want something, but all the pieces must be in place before its ready for you. Somethings come quickly, some require patience. We waited over a year to find the home that was right for all the family and it was finally delivered. The Angels gave us a strong sign that at the first time i saw the wood, didnt connect with....but it was the deal clincher in the end.
Everything in this Universe is connected but it also has its own agenda...forcing it blocks the flow.
P.S The house owner had also been frequented by my cat lucky and he also loves cats, which is rare in a man. Lucky already knows his new home and I doubt wont be phased by the move either..lol
