Life provides all kinds of indications.  We get them through our experience, our feelings, other people, all our senses.  Some of them speak louder than others with words or not. The ones which find a connection within ourselves are the ones we want to pay close attention to.  It may sound strange to ask what my pain is suggesting or what my frustration is suggesting.  How about what our laughter or delight is suggesting?  How we relate to our experience tells us something about how we are interpreting our lives.  We can use them as the suggestions they are to take a deeper look.  Things are rarely what they seem.  At least for me, it is not the face value which causes the pain or pleasure I sense in my heart.  It is what I think it is suggesting about me or my experience.  Being open to other suggestions is what I rely upon God for.  God, help me to see this as you see this?  What is this experience suggesting to me about who I am being or not being?  How might I learn from the suggestion of this experience about love today? I know deep down we are all here to grow into the love from which we were created.  It is our ideas about what is happening that typically prevent us from listening to the suggestions of life guiding us to remember who we truly are.
