I guess the proper thing to say is that I do not seek for signs. I think that is more appropriate.
What I mean is that I do not pray for signs in order for me to make a decision. I pray, not for signs, but for enlightenment so that I would be able to properly weigh the pros and cons of my decision.
It's not that I had a bad experience as to seeking signs. I can't remember any for now. But I do remember some persons who sought for signs so as to make a decision. And they did. Now, that I am thinking about it, I was wondering if they had regret asking for such sign in order to make a decision, which one could say was not really that much good of a choice. Charge to experience perhaps?
One thing that stops me from seeking signs is because I believe that signs are already everywhere. It is only when we "choose" to see and "seek" it would it show upon our face. But who can tell that such sign was never there before we sought for it?
On the other hand, I believe in signs when they are there to back-up the decisions we have made - an "after the fact" so to speak. You know that feeling that you made the right decision because all the signs are showing?
Anyway, this thought came to my mind when I watched this short film "Sign Seeker" from Nestle Philippines Kasambuhay Habambuhay Series starring John Lloyd Cruz and Solenn Heussaff. Watch out for the funny punchlines! A joy to watch! ;)
