legally blind and I feel invisible sometimes, so on one of those invisible days a knock at my door made me feel not so lonely anymore.

A young lady stood on my doorstep and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, but I had a flat and I don't know how to fix it." Asking her to come inside, I summoned my husband to fix the flat tire. He didn't mind, but when I asked the girl to sit for a while and rest, my husband looked at me as if I'd gone insane. He didn't say a thing, but I could read his mind. I knew he was thinking, "Why does she feel the need to sit and visit with a total stranger?" I'd have answered him if he'd have waited for me to reply to reading his mind, but he didn't. Instead, he closed the door and left us to chat about nothing in particular. I'm sure the young lady and I discussed the weather, as far as I can remember, but I do recall that I told her how nice it was to see and be visiting with a visitor. She smiled and said, "You look so familiar."

That's when I knew it was true. Deja vu is a sign of truth. It's a thought we thought we forgot, but when God sends the angel to remind us, we see through a vision of deja vu what wisdom is and will always be. That's why deja vu is something we've already seen. For two teens and two old ladies, wisdom means that we can see through God's vision, and even legally blind, we can see the light. We don't have to feel invisible or in a prison, lost and alone in our own home. So, today I say, "If it squeaks, it's probably just deja vu," but the only thing I know is true, is the fact that the road that leads to deja vu always begins and ends with compassion.

To Conclude:

Don't dismiss deja vu when it happens to you. It comes in a moment and then it fades away. So, the next time this mystery comes your way, pay attention to the clue the angel of deja vu gives to you. It just might be a defining moment in your life, or the gift of insight. Please remember me when deja vu comes to you, and it might lead you back to me or me to you, some day soon. After all, it could be true that deja vu is why they say, "God works in mysterious ways."
