when you put it like that - easy peasy! in the hours in between , i went back to my original stance and decided to just stop waffling and stay there!! the invites have gone out and now all i have to do is make the grande cake - i'll tell you guys about the cake later!!
just read your post about cheryl's phone call - really res'd with me. and even though i was leaning that way - but not quite sure: assume the good. when i read that, i just let it go.
everything you wrote is BANG ON!!! as in completely bang on. and you are sooooo right - here i am wanting to do a little thing like play frisbee - and i can't see the big thing he's offering - the whole damn party!!
so coach - thanks - oh and here's a little gift for you - just 3 days ago, i finally capitulated and bought a meditation cd that i'd known about for a couple of months.
so i downloaded it, and have done it several times since and it is AMAZING! i don't know if we are really allowed to post links but it's on the Abraham Hicks site, meditation cd - you can buy an instant down load and it costs about 15 bucks, and it is transformative.
it has taken me from being (as you all know) downright nutty to chilled out. i should add that for the last couple of months i was using a free version off youtube which i have mentioned here before that really chilled me out, but this is way past that!! it's based on law of attraction, and i can't tell you how effective it is. she advises in the user manual (which you'll get as a pdf, to do it 15 mins a day, but elsewhere i read that you can do it as many times as you like and even put it on before going to sleep - i did that last night and slept amazingly well).
the other thing that i have started doing is really special to me. after labug mentioned Melody Beatties' meditation book, which i got from the library, i also found one by her called "45 days to a miracle" (heck ,i'll try anything right?
well it was a different type of miracle than i was expecting. the book is really worth reading and i started following her suggestions of making a specific kind of list everyday. the "miracle is what happens inside you when you do that. i started a week ago - and it has helped me enormously in letting go, not being so affected by what is going on around me and also in resolving and helping myself work through my own issues and things i need to work on within myself. it's actually amazing what following her suggestions results in. i've never been able to calm myself and start to see more clearly. also it helps you to really define your feelings on what ever you're dealing with
so hope this helps someone else. the effect on me in just a week has been enormous.
thanks again brit - and a big ((( ))) . i am so definitely hooking up with you somewhere sometime in real time!!
off to do my little meditation and then big GAL tonight - me and girl friend are going out to eat and drinks. she's the one who offered me and s to move to france with them - first time we are hanging out together just her and me - so i am excited to really have a great conversation with her tonight about all kinds of stuff.
oh and fun times - at the immigration office (which is usually a stare you down look "are u a terrorist maybe" atmosphere - the moment i walked in - i was literally surrounded by the security guys who practically flirted and chatted with me for 15 mins on the way in. as i was leaving they said hey don't go, we want to hang out and talk some more. couldn't believe it!! my vibes are great these days - i know that - but that was over the top!! i had a lot of fun with them and actually a great conversation about india!!
