Seems like I can’t walk out the door with someone not speaking to be about The Secret. And what is the secret? That positive thoughts attract positive action. This is a secret? My neighbor brought over the DVD because the universe now understands that I am not going to buy and read the book, and the Secret wants an in to my life. So foot up, shackled to my couch, I am watching The Secret and lo and behold, like I said, I know it. <\/p>\n
Remember the Louise Nevelson quote I write about? – I have made my world and it is a much better one than the one offered to me – that’s my thought process already. What you imagine and desire of life – that is the life you will live. <\/p>\n
Okay, I’m living it with some modifications – I admit almost caving on the remodel – I lost faith at several steps in the process from conception to completion – always at night alone in my bed. Now I know better and believe stronger in the singular vision that any project requires. <\/p>\n
I admit to having lost faith in relationships – but I will get my faith back. Last night, sitting in the rocking chairs on the front porch looking at the evening lights twinkling in the bayou and having a glass of red wine with a colleague who is staying with me – we were talking about life and how one thing leads to another and most times the events are unplanned. She told me she’s lucky because she married her soulmate. I said I thought I had found mine but the kid thing threw it a curve ball. And she said, as almost 99% of the mothers I’ve spoken with have said, oh, but that’s a big curve ball. <\/p>\n
The secret is don’t give short shrift to your life’s desires because they will manifest themselves in other ways and not necessarily in a pretty package. My elephant in the room ended up leaving a huge pile of shit that has taken a long time to clean up. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
