Recently, I’ve met so many people that are accretive to my life – givers of light, carriers of fire, inside and out. That is why I am living this fabulous life because I’m surrounded by these lightning bugs. I call this group my Sunshine Circle – they are positive, always creative, generous, and their cup runneth over with love and spills into mine. Lucky me! There is another group – I call this group the…
I’ve been looking out windows the last few weeks – in Istanbul, looking at the Bosphorus at 5 AM while eating figs the size of grapefruits. Or looking out the window in Shanghai a couple of weeks later, at skyscraper by decrepit building by modern by ancient but one after another like dominoes ready to rise or fall. Looking out the window in New York at the lights in all of the buildings that were…
I was watching all of these brand marketers here at the conference talk about wanting the agencies who work for them to be excited, jazzed, enthused about their products. One said he saw an agency person drinking wine instead of one of their beers at a party and chastised the person. Another said I want to know that they are as excited about our product as we are. How do you get up every morning…
So my men friends have said point blank to me that my experience with the Mesmerizer is typical. He pursued, he conquered, he came, he left. Last night the comedy show was about watching porn – interested, interested, interested, very interested, not interested. And so if that sums up the male psyche – god help all women. But when I decided to extend an olive branch of friendship and forget how poorly he behaved as…
Right now I do hate – yes it’s a strong word – I hate hate hate hate hate hate – and I just can’t stop it – it just is. I hate. But the opposite of love is indifference not hate – so now I wait and hate until indifference takes over. Come on indifference.
But what if the heart wants to dictate its own demands? What if choosing is just as important as receiving? Jim Belushi is down there in the conference room right now singing his heart out – why? He said he is being paid a lot of money. The stars are crowding the Arizona sky. Is somebody paying for that? Things are happening in the world – AOL is moving to NY. Other companies are moving…
Pema Chondron wrote this book and someone recommended it – said it was about learning how to live in difficult times.
I’m here at the ANA conference in Phoenix at the Biltmore – a lovely resort – and I hook up with some long time sources of mine and a new one and before you know it they are taking the prayer sheet out of my pendant and writing wishes for me. The new one asks me, “What about your life now is so great?” and I told him, “This! Meeting people like you. My life…
After the MS 150 ride weekend, I had a night of anxiety nightmares. I dreamt I was in my “cocoon” as I called in the NO Magazine article and someone was trying to get in and I knew my alarm wasn’t set properly. So I got up in the dark and the flashing red light that tells me it is set was weak and I was trying to reset it. But it wouldn’t reset. And…
