I Am Clueless

It has come to my attention that I am completely clueless when it comes to certain aspects of my life. That I really am the last person to know certain things and that is especially disturbing since it is after all my life. A cathartic revelation here no?

I was attempting to go to sleep the other night which is a feat in and of itself and of course it was way too late for me to be attempting this. As I lay there counting backwards from 300 by threes (I read somewhere that it is supposed to help) a few snippets of what should have been signs from, oh the last year, came rushing in to my head. They were so minor and some might say trivial that I could almost give myself a pass for not recognizing them at the time but gosh are they important in hindsight (yes, I know that is normally 20/20 but I like to think of myself as a rather intuitive person so the fact I missed them is troubling).

We all have those nagging notions and random ramblings (I need more alliteration in my life, clearly) that we should pay more attention to but we don’t. I think it goes back to that whole fear thing that is instilled in us about many subjects from an early age.

In my case, if I had listened to what was going on and let myself accept those notions and ramblings it could have led to something really great a heck of a lot sooner. Ok, I’m trying some form of positive thinking that something really great is going to happen anyway just on a completely different timetable but bear with me on this one.

Why is it that we make such a big deal about intuition and trusting our instincts then find so many ways to avoid actually doing it? Is it really because the only thing that actually runs our lives is fear? I know the unknown is scary but can it be worse than the situations we put ourselves in by ignoring what’s in our face? Especially in situations where the “if it happens three times it’s not a coincidence” rule is in effect?
