Cosmic Connection

I’ve been a little weary lately with all the changes about to happen. It’s a natural process of second guessing that I go through with every major decision I make. I guess my recent decision to move up North has come with more ambivalence then usual. I have no doubt that I want to move, cohabitate, and experience a new part of New Zealand. However, it means yet another move to unfamiliar territory, making new friends in a new city, and taking a chance. It’s a process I’ve repeated almost every eighteen months for the last five years. It’s getting a little old. I suppose I’m starting to feel disconnected from friends I’ve made in the states and a feeling of floating alone in the middle of the ocean has come over me periodically of late. Then something strange happened. As if my friends and family felt my discomfort and anxiety, I received numerous emails and text messages from them all today. Friends I hadn’t heard from in weeks or months all made contact on the same day, as if summoned by some cosmic calling. It just reminds me that no matter where I am, I’m never alone. It also makes me wonder, how would I have coped without modern technology?
