Everything Happens for a Reason
It sounds cliché, I know, but I absolutely believe that statement now more than ever.
In no particular order, here's why I'm convinced: from getting the flu for the first time in seven years with a fever of over 103 degrees for 3 days and missing an entire week of work to meeting with my soon to be ex-husband at an adorable French café in Chelsea and clearing the air about everything that's happened including meeting new "people", which honestly, I never thought I'd be comfortable talking with him about so soon after our separation, to casually stopping in at my local for a pint and running into a new friend of mine who turns out to have publishing connections and is willing to help me get connected, to just being open enough to allow a wonderful new person in my life who has shown me so much kindness and generosity in such a short time that it's difficult not to adore him.
All of these experiences took place because they had to. They all happened to allow for the next experience to take place and so on and so forth. I don't believe in coincidences. That's just a skeptic's answer to how everything always works out in the end.
The strange thing about all of this is that I can actually feel myself getting nearer to fulfilling my dreams...my dreams of becoming a successfully published writer, getting a new, much higher paying job with benefits (to sustain me until writing becomes my day job) traveling abroad and living in Paris for a month before the end of the year, and being with someone who completely "gets" me and complements who I am in every way.
Just to plug the latest trend, The Secret, which honestly in my mind isn't a trend, it's the epitome of all spiritual beliefs about how to truly live a happy life and make your dreams come true. Sounds like a bunch of shit, doesn't it? Well, if you've got the opportunity, I highly recommend watching the dvd...then you can tell me if it still sounds like another one of those self-help scams that claim that you can change your life. Check out www.thesecret.tv In the least, you'll just get another perspective about the meaning of life. Enjoy. I've watched it 3 times now and have learned something new from it each time. So many amazing things have been happening since I opened myself to it that I can't deny that it works. See for yourself!
Stay tuned for more rants and raves, short stories and petty ramblings...I'm back and in full force!
