Being Hugged by the Universe

Today I got to show my new apartment off to my daughter, and later to a coworker who dropped off some housewarming gifts.

My daughter is an amazing, intelligent, kind person who makes her dad burst with pride.

My coworker is a dryad, I think, or maybe Springtime personified. She brought so much that I had to help carry it from her car.

Both of them hugged me as they left, and I realized that the universe was telling me something that I needed to hear.

It told me that I am greatly loved by beautiful people, it told me that it was glad I'm a part of it, and then it hugged me. I'm all wrapped up in stars and moons, planets and galaxies.

I feel kinda lucky, and I wanted to share some of the "Joyful" that is in my heart.

Who else gets hugs from the universe?

    This made my night. I'm so happy to hear about your hugs from the universe, and thank you so much for sharing!

    This reminds me of an old friend that I used to say I loved "universally." His presence, his energy, was like a gift, and no matter where he was in the world, I was just happy someone like him was in it. I have two best girl friends who always make me feel I've been hugged by the universe, too--left deeply full of gratitude and warmth.

    Oh, and @JoyfulHeart do you think I could steal that phrasing sometime? "To hugs from the universe" would make a wonderful toast, I think!

    Can't wait to read more of this thread. <3

    @JoyfulHeart Ah I very much believe that the universe has been very kind to me, as if it really likes me 😊.
    Recently I feel like it’s given me everything I wanted and I’m incredibly grateful. I’ve never though of it as being hugs from the universe but I love that. That’s what it feels like.

    Pretty sure the universe hates me. Either that or people are just ganging up to make me miserable.

    This is wonderful. Lately I've felt a little out of sync with the universe, but I know it'll come back around. 💕

    I like the idea. Lately, I have been embracing the idea of every living being I have ever encountered being present in this moment and in this place. It was spurred on by the death of a cat and my discovery of Thich Nhat Hanh this summer. I always kinda believed it but I have practices that focus directly on this one aspect of the universe. It is like hugging every molecule and everything in-between and loving every being I encounter all day every day. I'm down with that idea.

    A cool fog greets me at the door, as I step out into them mist. On my stroll the sun casts shafts of light through the trees, and the mist rises to greet the light like a bride, walking down the chapel aisle. The wind wisps through the trees, and their leaves whisper sweet nothings in my ear. The brook laughs as it skips across the stones. "Come and play!" It calls with a giggle. I wander into the clearing and the sun kisses my face and warms my shoulders like a lover's hands. I set flint to stone and sparks fly on the tinder I've prepared for the evening, The sky has put on her best gown; its sparkles turn my head to capture its beauty. The fire dances with the night to the song of the crickets and the tree frogs. The smoke is drunk with the scent of a hardwood cask, and swaying back and forth, it falls onto each member in our company. The trees clap with gentle applause as the wolf bays his epic song. Like a mother, the clouds tuck in the night sky, and raindrops tap me on the shoulder, to tell me the night is done. "Ssshhhhhhh," the fire whispers. It's time to sleep.

    Love when the universe gives you a hug. Whether it’s in the form of a child smiling at you and making you smile or the wind blowing through your hair on a warm day, the feeling of tour hairdresser digging into your scalp to wash your hair, or the clear night sky shining with stars and the moon, it’s always refreshing when these little “smiles” or winks happen…

    Every time I'm watching a show with my bestie and our personalities just click into place and fuse together, it always fills me with so much light. Hearing someone laugh or listening to the rain tap against my window. chef's kiss

    These are my favorite hugs from the universe.
