Waking up with focused intent

Hello everybody !! :cheer:

I have this thing happening to me a couple of times lately where I would wake up in the middle of the night or in the morning where a topic, usually something I learned recently would pop up in my mind very intensly. Like A decesion has been made to change myself on the subject or some kind of clean up has been reached to make space for a new endeavour. I tend to think that it could be the mind that put the peices toghether during the night to prepare the feild for new info/experiences.
For exemple I woke up with outside consideration in mind. But it also comes with great feeling of accomplishment. Not that I'm there yet cause I think this is one of my weakest points, but that I'm somewhat both consciously and unconsciously preparing the ground to move forward towards that goal.

I woke up this morning and knocked on the shipping door to make a delivery and been waiting for 12 hours to do so (sleeping in my truck) .A guy comes buy asking who is it ? through the door without opening and then he leaves. I tell him its for a delivery and no further answer...he made me wait 10 minutes outside a door in the cold, where I must deliver some water skids.The doorbell is not functionning so I bang on the door many times until I get heard. I'm a trucker by the way. The guy comes back later to tell me he cant open the door Ill have to wait for an hour for the next guy. I got frustrated but at the same time I knew it could have been me acting the same way if I'm not paying attention to my surroundings.
So gratitude and caring will be on my to do list for a while hopefully until it becomes natural to me.

The situation you describe sounds very frustrating, indeed! But it's also good that you were able to see the broader perspective. As it happens, in many situations we may end up frustrating someone else, or even making their life miserable. Unfortunately, that's how life on this planet goes, that some days we may be someone's "guardian angel", and on other days be in the role of someone's "petty tyrant". It's like the Universe reminds us to stay humble, and that we can't control everything. There are after all so many people and so many unpredictable circumstances! The only thing we can do is everyday try to make the best we can. :)
 
It's true how life seems to throw at us situations that are on our mind. I guess it pushes us further into understanding, living real life exemples to solidify knowledge. Especially when we think we acquired something it will test us so we can see the infinite nature of things and like you said it comes with a good doze of humility!
