Sometimes left behind means arriving early

This morning I had the experience of feeling like I was left behind. I was downstairs waiting for my crew to show up and I was also sending out texts on my phone. I had arrived early and wanted to be on time while getting my work done. I looked up and saw another crew milling about and when I checked my time it was 7:20. My van was supposed to leave at 7:15. I rushed outside and I did not see my crew. I was offered ride with the other crew that was leaving at 7:20. I spoke with the driver and we went in circles. He assured me that everything was ok and I would get to my destination on time. I was fixated on why they would leave me. Why didn’t the come and check for me. I wouldn’t have left them without trying to first contact them. I wasn’t angry I just couldn’t understand. In the end I arrived at the airport an hour early because the driver takes two crews to the airport to work Houston flights and because I insisted that my van was for 7:15 he assumed I was confused (which I was) and missed the scheduled 7:05 van. In the end we got it all straightened out and he returned to the hotel to get my crew whose Van was 8:15 for a 9:30 departure to Houston. Whew! All that !

It is my habit to seek the Spiritual perspective from every situation so in order to do so I must first acknowledge that I invited this experience into my life. The next step is to ask what this experience is here to teach me. Here is what I have discerned.

After acknowledging that it is no one else’s responsibility to look for me and it is my responsibility to be responsible for myself. I saw the lesson. I have acknowledged God as the head of my life. I am to go where I feel pulled to go. I must trust that where I am, is where I am supposed to be. I must trust that sometimes when I feel I have been left behind it is really me just arriving early and the left behind feelings are my old self wanting to play out a particular script that is familiar and safe with people that I am familiar with. In the stepping out into the new way of being that involves trusting my intuition I will learn to go with what feels right and be still before I move into action. When I move into action I will learn to trust that God has my back and it is by energetic invitation I have been called to move forward. When I trust, I will see that being left behind is not a bad thing, being left means that an opening has been created for something new.
