Keep Your Eye Out for Signs & Symbols from the Universe to Guide You

Bonjour my Royal friends! Welcome to my blog, a ‘tongue-in-chic’ happiness lifestyle guide from a funny princess point of view!

Today I’d like to talk to you about trusting the universe as your default setting.

Do you ever feel like something higher than yourself has a nose in helping you lead your best life? I do, and I invite you to develop that feeling, that intuition. I call it trusting the Universe. For me, trusting the Universe means having the open-mindedness that allows me to interpret synchronistic events, serendipitous occurrences, and random wisdom sprinkled into my life as some mysterious guidance accruing for my good. Today’s post includes a fun story of true adventure, one where I trusted the universe and it led me to a horse…which led me to jump start my career as a writer. I hope you find inspiration in the story and find application for your life too.
