Now I have heard a lot of stories about how people came to find me… “I saw your website, and I just knew you were the right one.” “I saw your name and something said yes.” “I was driving by and saw the sign and just knew this was the place.” “Something happened and I knew it was a sign.” But the one today has to be the best yet.

One of my students was a retired navy chief. He has been on a spiritual journey pretty much since getting out of the service. He had been reading on Reiki for about four months when he was driving down Third Street and had a flat tire, and pulled into the nearest parking lot to fix it.

The friend who was with him looked up at the sign that listed a number of businesses, and one listing caught his eye. He looked at the ex-navy chief and asked “What’s Riy-key?” The chief looked up and was surprised when he saw “Caring Palms Massage and Reiki”. He knew at that moment that it was a sign… literally and figuratively.

That very night, he looked me up on the computer, looked at the information on Reiki, and signed up for a class.

Just as I know that spirit had a hand in our moving to Florida where I have learned most of what I do, I am sure that they had a hand in my student’s tire blowing out at the exact second it did. This was indeed a sign. They were directing him to something he needed.

Cool.
