Inexplicable

Life is simply inexplicable, only God knows how things happen and time unfolds the secret.  I wonder about meeting people who change our lives in the deepest possible ways. Out of nowhere,  suddenly someone may appear and immediately something wakes in us. A soul recognition perhaps- “anam cara”– “soul friend” , as John  O`Donohue often describes it, as we behold this stranger who affects every molecule of our body and we feel safe and protected and very special . One feels more connected to this person than anyone else, one feels  far closer to them than anyone that one has ever known.  Some call this infatuation, some call it love.  

Perhaps it is an angel sent from a higher realm, to teach some life lesson, or carries a special message to us.  Often the reason for their presence is not clear at the time- and interpretation is simply based on the romantic notions of the heart- but look deeper, search among the weeds for there lies the answer which will become clear in due time.

Though there are many warnings that this person is simply an angel, -one does not see and  one gets  to love them. However  remember angels are not ours to keep. Their purpose is temporary; it is to advise, show  or light our way.  And once this  message is delivered the angel leaves- returning to  a higher realm.  At this time the person exits one`s life often amid pain, deep woundedness, anger and sadness. 

Then, we see them a while later or look at their photo- and we wonder what ever did we see in them in the first place, for they look and feel totally different; nothing special. A complete stranger- for the light has left them that was so compelling. We finally breathe a sigh of relief- for we are to longer tethered.

Time passes, all heals - and they return much later as you review your life in the form the realization which has crystallized within your soul; which is that "one was touched by an angel".
