I know in my gut when something is wrong. I know what that something is without being told. More often than not, I shove it aside. Does this happen to you? I know that it does to me and by now you would think I would recognize it. Yes, the force is strong in this one, young Padawan.
Blah blah blah.
I'm going to start carrying signs, paddles in my car with messages.
1. You're a Dick! - for the idiot who drives like a bat out of hell in the wrong lane and then cuts everyone off to move over.
2. You wish! - for the same idiot who thought you were not driving fast enough at 70 and blows by, cutting you off and flipping the bird as he/she does so.
3. Hang up and drive! - for the moron driving 40 on the freeway and talking on the phone. Or putting on their mascara. Or shaving.
4. to be continued...
Your Last Words: |
 "Tell them I said something." |
This happens to me A LOT. Although half the time I have no idea what made me take the scenic route or made me get the hell out of that parking area... but something just does. And then I find out that there was a major accident on the freeway (instead of that scenic route) or there was a hold up just a block away from where I would have been parked. I call it Jedi Ju-Ju... but,... it could just as well be coincidence. Whatever it is, I'm not knocking it... I'll tell you that much O_o
ReplyDeleteThis was a little bit hard for me to get through. But I did. So. My last words: "What we know is not much. What we don't know is enormous."
ReplyDeleteAnd knowing something is wrong when you shouldn't know? Whatever faculty I ever had in my brain to do that has been burned up and blasted because I overused it and it never worked right anyway.
But yes it does exist. The stronger the emotional connection, the better it works.
Christi, I have got to start listening to my gut more. I can't even begin to say how many times I have avoided catastrophe. And sometimes maybe could have prevented it if I had listened.
ReplyDeleteBeth, I am in a black state of mind. As you know. As one who constantly had her voice taken away, my last words meant something to me. In hindsight I wish I hadn't posted it. Another reason why I should listen to myself more.
That connection is strong in a lot of people if they believe it and use it. And have that strong emotional connection.
The intuition thing happens to me too. I'm pretty good at listening to my gut, so when it still happens it's like, "Really self?"
ReplyDeleteAnd the sign idea, lol! I've had that thought too.
Lunar, I could go on and on about those signs. I sat in traffic tonight coming home and was appalled (as if this doesn't always happen) at the people who exit the freeway from the fast lane. Those people should be shot! I bought one of these novelty things for my husband once. You stick it on your dash and it makes noises like those arcade games, like Space Invaders or Asteroids when you "blast" the idiots driving in front of you. Of course he carried a badge and a gun so it put him in a different category all together. And man could he drive. He was the worst offender but he was trained to drive like a madman. Talk about insane. I was the white knuckled passenger with eyes the size of the full moon.
