Baked a complicated pumpkin cheesecake muffin recipe tonight that turned out incredibly good. And no construction all day! At last! It was wonderful.
Weird that I dreamed about my mom because my aunt called and messaged me about my mom later that day. I haven't seen my aunt since I was probably 17 years old! She never called me before. Me nor my brother had been able to find my mom in over a year.
In the previous entry I wrote about how I prayed for her -- and I am NOT the praying type and I don't want to give any impression that I am religious because I'm very much not -- but I prayed that she was okay, focusing all my mental power on it, meditating on her well being with all my strength. Then I dreamed of her that night. Then around midday, my aunt contacts me out of nowhere to tell me she talked to my mom and she sounded good!
Again with these dreams of mine! It weirded me out all day because this always happens! I dream of someone and BOOM they appear, or I receive news. Does this not happen to other people??!
This makes me believe in the power of meditation even more. I don't think I'd have dreamed of her if I hadn't focused my thoughts on her the way I did before bed. Meditation and prayer are not all that different I think, but I guess I prefer to think of what I was doing as a self guided meditation.
My subconscious mind is somehow extremely attuned to loved ones, even if I'm in a different country or if we haven't spoken in over a year, long before I started meditating. It constantly freaks myself and others out. It's not so crazy if you think about it. We're all connected. I think of myself as a living incarnation of my parents and ancestors. My mind and body is half my mother, so it's not crazy to believe we share some kind of connection. It's amazing isn't it? I put the thought out into the universe, and the universe replied. Amazing!
Anyway I'm a witch blah blah whatever. I'm so glad to hear my mom is doing well. I feel more at ease now.
And I have a sudden urge to willfully meditate about specific people or questions seeking answers to see if the universe has any other interesting insights to share with me...
