I am blessed with intense, inner-growth through adversity and smile to know what I can endure. 🙂

I still walk around, aimlessly, trying to get a handle on the confusion that is my life. A few hours ago though, I decided to not take the logical route of actually grasping something for clarity; In my experience, such efforts have been as effective as trying to keep a slippery fish in hand. Instead of going with facts and certainty, I guided myself towards intuition and faith– The latter need not be religious for others, but my spiritual self senses that someone or something is looking out for me… the Lord, the Universe, the Buddha guy whomever or whatever, I feel that my back is under surveillance and secured. With that said, I went into “mover-shaker” mode to get the ball rolling on a pet project of mine that will complement the concept of my fledgling muse, ChocolateGeisha Productions.
I discussed my idea with a valued confidante who was concerned about the logistics of not having enough supporting players in place to make this undertaking go smoothly. Her opinion seemed to slightly change when I compared the circumstances to a Kevin Costner flick and confidently assured her that if I start the process, “they will come.”
Call me Don Quixote, but I see the cavalry on the horizon.
Today, I TOOK STEP ONE on the ROAD to NEW BEGINNINGS!

My “big problems” hold little importance over the inner-peace and dignity that I cultivate within.

I’ve got loads and loads of rough drafts that are begging to be posted on my blog, but something keeps telling me to save them for a casing made of ink, paper, glue and spine.
We’ll see.
All I know is that right now, I am feeling elated– not because so many fabulous things have happened to me, but because almost everything that could go bad has (save my health and furry miracles {knock on wood}). I’m not in the mood to list them all off, but let me just say that this morning started out by my leaving the house, in 25-degree-weather, to attempt to drive my car to the mechanic. I say “attempt” not only because I have been driving on bad tires with brakes so horrendous that grinding and skidding could be heard while driving five miles per hour… a sound so horrific that I was convinced, the engine would fall out from under my car while on the highway, causing a pileup that would make the evening news. I had even gone to the shop, days earlier, just to hear what I already knew, “You can’t drive this car, like this.” (It would’ve been amazing to see More

I've just discovered the ongoing success of someone who has not always been pleasant to me. I won't begrudge, but will be motivated by it.

I will not mourn the loss of objects with monetary value; Instead, I shall be thankful for my life and the gift of another day to experience a new chapter of my journey.

I will feel happy when I see someone’s effort to block my success; It shows that they even know my potential for greatness!

I will no longer allow misery the privilege of my attention; Its influence will diminish and my joy will intensify.
