Fear Cloaked as Skepticism
Pair this nod from the Universe with The Sign by Ace of Base
Skepticism: Could be a scam.
Me: But what if it isn’t? What if it’s the sign I’ve been waiting for? Begging for?
Skepticism: You’re such a sucker sometimes.
Me: Am not! I just try to be open to whatever messages come my way.
Skepticism: It doesn’t work that way. It’s not Bluetooth.
Me: You don’t know that! Most people miss their calling because they’re not listening.
Skepticism: In that case, I have a bridge to sell you.
Me: No, I think this is it. I think I will regret it if I don’t do it.
