Sometimes, spirit whispers before it moves.
You’re standing still, doing the work, keeping your promises to yourself… and without warning, something shifts.
A message arrives. A long-held intention begins to open.
Something releases its hold.
It’s easy to miss it if you’re only watching for big, dramatic signs. But often, the sacred confirmation comes soft.
A sense of relief.
A loose thread finally pulling free.
A weight that quietly lifts while you’re tending to the small things.
There are always signs—if we pay attention.
I was reminded recently of something someone told me many years ago:
“You don’t just wake up and it’s spring. You see one bud form, then another. That’s how the seasons shift—quietly, faithfully, one sign at a time.”
That wisdom has stayed with me. I see it in nature and in life.
You don’t always see the whole bloom—but you notice the bud.
You don’t always feel the victory—but you sense the opening.
You may not have everything in place—but you know something has turned.
And when you trust those signs, you allow them to speak life into the next step.
So if you’re in a moment of pause, or waiting, or wondering if anything is moving—
Lean in. Watch the trees. Listen to the wind.
There are signs all around you.
You’re not stuck.
You’re not forgotten.
You’re just in the turning.
I recognize the shift before it shows. I trust what’s becoming. I honor the whisper before the wave.
