Synchronicity
Wow. Synchronicity always blows me away. It is more than good luck, always timely, and when one recognizes it and can take advantage of it’s offerings...how do you say the small miracle? Perhaps it is not a small thing. La Milagro. Perhaps it is truly a real miracle... not only to have the opportunity present, but to be able to recognize it and grasp it just .....THEN!
Here I am in Taos checking out some winter boots off CraigsList. Turns out the lady works at a real estate office. I mention I’m studying up for my license. She wastes no time in trying to sponsor/mentor/recruit me to her office. The terms (as I’ve researched them on the most basic level) seem more than appealing.
So. Before I commit myself I whip off a quick email to the real estate broker who helped us buy our house. Cause we think she’s awesome. And what if, you know, what if, say she needed help? So I said, “oh, crazy enough, I’m thinking of doing this. Here is this company’s offer, what do you think”?
She immediately counters by recruiting me to her organization, for a look, a read, and a walk-through, before I commit to the Taos people. Excellent. I was hoping that would be her response, because there is a level of trust already there. Also because I didn’t really know how to approach her. It appears we learn to read between the lines.
My friend from California who is moving here...will be moving here by flying out to kitty sit whilst we are in Las Vegas for the picture-framing class. Yes, never too many options for the livelihood. Picking her up from SunPort in Albuquerque tomorrow. (I just love spelling Albuquerque, and I’m so glad I don’t live there!)
Gaaah. I have an old, old friend, Casey, who just bought a sizeable parcel in Costa Rica. He sent me pictures. He’s moving his family down there. His wife, an architect from the Ukraine, will design cabins and “gringo specification vacation homes” on their property, and he and his wife will build their dream home up top of the property on 8.6 acres overlooking the whole thing. They have forest, they have cliff(s), they have banana trees, they have mist.
Ahhh, and we have Milagros, Truchas, a million dollar view, billion dollar friends, and each other. No comparison. Hands down, I’ll take this. I actually don’t like hot sandy beaches and the tropics and I am totally sick of palm trees. Ugh.
