I've always believed it and I've always lived by it. But something is way off kilter in my life when doors are slamming shut all around me.
I've decided to take all the time I need to see if I can figure out what an open door even looks like.
Addendum: I did not mean to give the impression that this was about romantic relationships. I wish it were that simple. I will be back when I can.
Yeah, me too.
ReplyDeleteWaiting for one to open for myself. But right now I'm honouring the closed one.
And crying.
I hope yours doesn't involve tears my dear.

I LOVE this post! Both your words and images.
ReplyDeleteAnd like you, I too believe this. And I too have gone through experiences where it seemed as though ALL the doors were slamming shut. Yet, it ended up being a time of great change and self-empowerment.
"I've decided to take all the time I need to see if I can figure out what an open door even looks like."
Exactly.
And I can only share from my own experiences that it was my 'perception' to what an open door looked like because I kept looking for a 'familiar' door. But the door ended up being something that I had never thought of or even noticed.

I have to agree with Ron. My perception, expectation, whatever, could have gotten in the way early on, so I didn't trust my radar and kept to myself. When the right door opened, my new love was quite different from what I was expecting :)
Deletedef take the time you need...i believe in these signs as well...if all the ways are blocked we need to consider our next move carefully....
ReplyDeleteI have a tendency to keep pulling at the closed doors. stupid idea.
ReplyDeleteSending you a B.I.G. (((((((((H.U.G)))))))))
ReplyDeletei'm sorry to learn things seem so off kilter in your world. here's hoping the open doors become apparent sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeleteI hope you aren't as tearful as I am right now...Sending you a hug.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your search, sorry you feel so many doors closing around you:(
ReplyDeleteWell I hope it all works out whatever it is, maybe your lifepath is just taking a different route, hopefully for the better. xx
ReplyDeleteI like to think of times like this...when it seems like all the doors are closed...as being a time to pass by those doors, as in a hallway, moving forward rather than lingering. I know you'll end up in a great place.
ReplyDeleteI feel sad reading this. It reminds me of Renee's healing tears. I know your honesty will find an opening.
ReplyDeleteLove

When doors shut we must either wait for them to open when they will or push at them. That is if we want that particular door to re-open.
ReplyDeleteSometimes a new door will open all by itself.
Take care.
The shutting of doors need not necessarily mean anything negative. It may well be the best that can happen to you under the circumstances. In retrospect, you will see that this was so.
ReplyDeletePlease come back after you answer the door.
ReplyDeleteWell, crud. I am thinking of you and willing doors to fly open, like magic, as you approach.
ReplyDeletestopping by to say hello and hope the winds are gentle and if not, hope they lift and land you exactly where you're supposed to be.
