The Day I Got Slapped by 10,000 Rainbows

(Thanks pixabay!)

I'm the kinda gal who likes to do a bit of soul searching.

I dig mystical truth bombs, ancient secret teachings and miracle manifestation stuff.

I'm always reading books by Neville Goddard, Wallace Wattles and other New Thought leaders of this ilk. As such, there was a time when I was reading through the blog posts of one Gabby Bernstein.

She writes a lot about meditation, living in the now (a la Eckhart Tolle) and general spiritual girl power.

I soak this stuff up like a dry sponge in water.

Anyway, so she's there talking about doing an exercise where you can ask the universe for a sign. Whatever question you've got, ask the universe for a confirmation sign and you will get a response.

A little dubiously, I decided to take up this challenge.

I didn't really have a question though. I was pretty sorted in terms of answers at that point.

So I thought I'd pull out the big guns and ask The. Question.

I closed my eyes.

...Now then god... If you exist....uhhhhhh..... I want you to prove it to me by....uhhhh.... showing me a sign..... This sign should be a rainbow. A very clear, unmissable rainbow...

I opened my eyes.

I felt a bit silly.

Then I went about my day. No rainbows presented themselves and by the time I went to bed I had practically forgotten the whole affair.

The next day when I woke up and logged onto my computer, I was presented with this.

Of course, same sex marriage ruling had just occurred over in the ol' US of A... and more rainbows had just appeared in the world than had ever been known before.

Love ruled supreme!

So, if Miss. Gabby Berstein and my little delve into asking for signs is to be believed, god does indeed exist... he/she is LOVE, he/she has a funny sense of humour and he/she most definitely agrees with gay marriage.

Well, I must say, I'm quite happy with that. :)
