Spirit tends to teach us lessons through symbolism. For example: this morning I had a glass full of chai on the kitchen counter. I grabbed it and it fell about an inch onto the granite and shattered. Milk, chai, ice and glass were all over the counter and floor, liquid dripping down the cabinets. It was a spectacular mess! How could that huge mess happen from a glass falling one inch? It must have hit just right.
As I rarely spill things and am not particularly accident prone, I asked myself was their some symbolism I should pay attention to? My mind thought of “don’t cry over spilled milk.” I didn’t feel any connection to that, so I was quiet for a minute and waited for the symbolism to come to me. I heard “it doesn’t require a lot of effort to make a spectacular impact on the world!” Ahhhh, I can resonate with that!
