"We have moved"
Well, thanks a bunch for telling me! Since I am not that familiar with place names in Holmfirth, I wasn't sure where the new address was. I walked back to the main road and turned towards the town centre. Coming towards me was (I assumed) a local and I asked him if he knew the new location. He was as uncertain as I was, but we both thought I was heading in the right direction.
After a few more steps, and realising it was now 5 minutes before my appointment, I suddenly remembered my mobile. I phoned up, only to discover that the dentist was now behind me and actually the same distance in the opposite direction to the path I had taken, from their old premises.
An innate sense of direction isn't something I was ever blessed with, so it was no surprise that I intuitively set off in the wrong direction - and don't think I haven't tried playing with this by having this internal conversation:
"Which way shall I go? I think I should turn left. That means I should probably go right, since I usually get direction wrong. But if I turn right instead of left, perhaps I should go left anyway..."
What was actually more interesting to me, was that my dentist had moved. In terms of spiritual development and law of attraction - and all those things connected with 'creating our own reality', I have to say that at no time, past or present, had I ever entertained any thought or expectation that my dentist would not be where I left it last time! My complete 'knowing' expectation was that I would arrive at my dentist in the usual way.
As Spock from the old Star Trek series would say: Fascinating...
