I’m becoming more and more convinced that all this positive thinking stuff works!
Here is today’s experience. I went to Yoga and for the last fifteen minutes, we lay on our mats, meditating. I breathe in white light and breathe out sparkles. The sparkles float into the air and tap into all the optimistic power of the Universe.
After yoga, I hauled my sweaty self home. (I never would have imagined yoga is a sweat-inducing business.) Bronson greeted me joyfully. After loving on him for a bit I went to the computer. Checked out Gmail. My only emails are from zulily, Chase Bank, and Capital One. When did people stop emailing? Then I snooped around CNN news and finally opened Facebook.
Lo and Behold my friend Judy sent me an FB link to best-selling author Judy Blume’s new Master Class. I adore Judy Blume. One of my favorite books is The Pain and the Great One.
All my positive thinking manifested a class offered by one of my favorite kids’ authors! See? There are no accidents.
I plunked down $90, gathered all my coloring equipment and planned to spend the afternoon coloring while at “school.”
It turns out the class doesn’t begin until January. So I’ve put the pencils and coloring bookmark away.
Instead, I’ll sit on my broad backside and read Ken Follett’s A Column of Fire. Jimmy bought it at Costco, but he’s still picking his way through Gone with the Wind, so I pilfered it. Jim reads very slowly which gives me plenty of time to finish. Recently I asked him, “Do you read every word?” He replied, “Of course. What do you do? Skip every other one?” Possibly.
