A-HA! “Now I Know…” 💡🤔

Yeah, those moments happen where we reach a point in realizing THAT needed to be part of our lives in order to move forward. “Now, I Know!” was spoken by the Ultimate Warrior during his WMVII match with “Macho King” Randy Savage. He was talking to those gods above while using his hands, deciding whether to leave the ring or stay and battle. I’ve used photos from that match before. The A-HA part isn’t referencing the 80’s group that sings “Take on Me” although I hear that song often. 🤭

These expressions can reference many things, both bad or good all based on how you use it. My photo below was taken from U.W’s very last match in the WWF (E) against Owen Hart. Did he know that would be it with the company? Probably because of comments made about his contract, but I can’t be certain. Again, like I’ve said before~ if he never had left, he never would’ve seen what else was beyond his time in the ring back then. Warrior had that moment am sure of then KNOWING it was the right thing to do. I’m certain though he had plenty of those A-HA moments throughout his life too just like we all do.

I know I mentioned in my P. S. last week of remembering that date being October 29. Yes, it was the U.S. release of 2K 14 in 2013 BUT it was also the date of a spiritual heart opening experience I have detailed before back in 2019, 6 years later. I’m not getting into all that again but a week after, I saw my psychic friend who explained much from an energy perspective. Both were without a doubt A-HA’s for me but not until later on did I connect those energetics dots of my DNA. Those “Now I Know” times began a NEW (cue “The FINK!”) ultimate journey for me in such profound ways which brought my constant OMG’s quite often. Unfortunately, some experiences needed medical attention but NO doctor found anything wrong with my heart, ever. OK, a few years later, I did have an ulcer but its origin was not medically or physically related which is another ““Now I Know” memory. I’ve had a few sources give validation, but it was all my own intuition which guided the feelings all along. 🥹😳💙

I’m not saying you need or will have times like mine as you won’t but think real hard for those stoppages that bring pause to your life. It does not have to be a negative or even bad experience at all although those periods bring the good eventually our way. I’m also not referring to those life milestones we all have in our lives beginning in infancy. You know what I mean like childhood stuff well into adulthood of family life, work, relationships, homes, etc. What I mean are much deeper than the daily movement of stages. How about a person who has impacted your life in ways that forever changed you and will never be forgotten? Yes, folks I have them besides Warrior because he is in a class by himself. I have mentioned my former book club leader, my spiritual cousin, the owner of a spiritual shop, and even other teachers along the way. A favorite yoga instructor comes to mind too. A few men have given me those moments also- not to worry… some boys from childhood as well… Maybe you don’t have a group of people as mine are a select few, but perhaps it is on another level for you. I always have my music and some songs will forever be those A-HA ones always. There’s movies, books, vacations, and so many other recollections of never feeling the same about it ever again. It’s kind of like the first time with situations we will rarely face the exact way and yet continue on seeking new adventures.

A person might have given you sound advice about an area of your life and you will forever be influenced. Think of those types of circumstances you have been in that are much deeper than getting married, having a baby, owning a home, having that dream job, dream house, ( no, not Barbie…) and all that. This kind of thinking involves so much more from us but truly try as I bet you can. Make it more heart centered. Warrior had mentioned people who influenced him with their words whether knowing them personally or not. He also had talked about places he loved and outside interests which sparked A-HA thoughts he turned into action.

We actually both have a Linda in common. He had Linda McMahon bringing him back to WWF (E) in 1996 and then inducting him into the HOF. All of those years culminated in a “Now I Know” memory. At least I like to think of it and her that way. You can have your own POV about his other “Mom.”

My Linda was a child fitness instructor who had a local mini TV show. I worked with her at some of my preschools before the day began in the early 90s. It was just a short half hour exercise program for the kids and oh, what fun! She eventually went national with her “KinderKicks” routine and it suited her. After my Grandpa passed, she was the only “work person” I could relate to. He was my first big family’s loss. I was still a teen, and those other women (with good intentions I know) just rubbed me the wrong way in handling my grief. We never know the right words to say after someone has passed and they meant well, but Linda showed me such empathy that I’ve never forgotten, 32 years later. I’m not even sure anymore what she said but it was all in the HOW. I wanted to crawl in her lap and just BE… That’s an A-HA moment for sure, despite the initial sadness. They all could’ve been my mothers, but Linda treated me as an equal. 

It’s THOSE people, moments, memories, convos, music, movies, or anything else that becomes your A-HA times of saying ” Now I Know.” You won’t be talking to your hands am sure, or even singing “Take on Me” but tap into the deeper spaces of your heart that make you FEEL without thinking too much. I just thought of my Linda too as she wasn’t even considered with the original notes. That’s just how it works warriors. Find your A-HA pauses. They are there if you really remember. Then, you will KNOW…

P.S. Oh, I thought of SO many more for me. There was yoga, meditation, crystals (of last week,) and a ton of others! Think of your own. No, not all mine are of a “spiritual” nature… It’s just what we need to do. All in divine timing that aligns perfectly for you. 🤍

*** Now, I’m singing A-HA’s song in my head!!!! 🎼🎧🎤

I'm a wife, mom of 2 and have always been a huge fan of WWE’s the Ultimate Warrior despite his passing. I created this blog to share my stories relating to him that happened years ago and some are continuing today with his Spirit alive and well! I hope some fans out there relate and enjoy my blog!!! Check out my book “Spirit and Belief” on how Warrior influenced me in spirit. It is filled with humor, family stories, psychic terms, following my intuition, and how everyone has natural abilities we can tap into or get guidance upon.
