Teige Almighty??!!

Todays subject was "Is there a God?" The reason being & you won't believe me when I say this but last night I was looking for a dvd in a very messy cupboard. I kinda disturbed a pile of junk & something fell on my head. It was a little bible of the new testament that I recieved in our first year at secondary school. So I racked my brains all last night as to what it could mean.

The guys say its just a coincidence but AF who is a believer in God anyway thinks its a sign but more importantly asked what I felt it was. My safest reaction to such questions is always "I dunno" accompanied by a shrug but I couldn't just reel that one off - which AF reckoned was another sign in itself. He said if I could believe in Karma & Destiny then why not the notion that a God exists?

I do actually believe in two God-like beings: Poseidon God of the Seas who I usually talk to before I set foot on a boat full stop & believe me on some of the cruise ships I've been on I've asked him to keep us safe & Epona, Goddess of Horses who I have asked to keep horses I've had or known safe & well or help them get better when they are sick or make the crazy long shot win! - Ok not that last one but you get the picture. So I do have the capacity to believe in something strongly & unconditionally. For example I still believe in Sander Camillo who has done jack all this season & I still believe - no scratch that - I know Kicking King will beat Kauto Star if he has fully put his tendon injury behind him. Two years off the track will not have dented his ability one iota. I also believe in angels, spirits & ghosts but thats another entry entirely. But I'm getting side-tracked.

AF's question stumped me yet further & so I've either been in deep solitary thought all day or chatting with AF to help me figure it out. If more proof were needed at 10am I said to AF "God I'm hungary" & before he had a chance to go to th eshop & get me something, JK came in with cakes. Even AF looked at me & said what I was thinking "That was very spooky - could I do it with money?!" Obviously not meaning the last bit seriously. Or was he? Coz at 4.50pm this arvo before I left I thought "God I need to go to the cash point" & the next thing I know J's called me into her office & given me £25 for all my hard work. Bearing in mind I never get cash gifts coz thats what regular wages are for. It was so weird & out of character for J!! AF doesn't know about this one yet so he'll have a field day tomorrow. This is on top of two other incidents today.

I dropped a shed load of paperwork on the floor & they landed face down bar one sheet that did land face down but the bottom of it was curled over displaying the phrase .... "God has created each person to celebrate life to the full". I quite like that line actually. It makes sense to me.

To top the day off when I got home I was putting my jewellery away off the weekend & I happened upon my gold with orange-red stones celtic style cross that I've had since I was fifteen but haven't worn it for eight years. I swear it wasn't there when I got my jewellery out on the Saturday. I would have remembered it. So the necklace is now on my bedside table glinting at me in the fading sunlight while I have stuck the above mentioned phrase onto the inside of my wardrobe door above the mirror which I look into each day to do my hair. Not sure why I put it there - it just felt the right thing to do.

I feel like a flipping extra in Evan Almighty!

Ciao for now
