The Secret in Danica's class...

Danica brought my copy of "The Secret" to school. I was a bit iffy and nervous about lending out the original. I sure didn't want anyone to scratch it up or worse, lose it. But then on the other hand, if that did happen I knew exactly where to get my hands on another copy.

She called me just now (early release day) that Mrs Watson absolutley loved the movie and her whole class watched 3/4 of it. They were astonished to know that changing the way you think can have a massive impact on your life. I only wish someone had showed me this movie while growing up. I would have a better, less stressful, childhood. Perhaps these kids will learn that there's much more to life than having to tell themselves or worse off, someone telling them they can't do certain things or can't become what they want. I think Mrs. Watson asked Danica to bring it back tomorrow to watch the rest of it. :) I'm really glad that someone else can benefit from this movie and this in itself gives me the one and only reason to have myself block out the negativity that Pete gives me about it.

Pete is still closeminded about the whole thing. We tried to watch "What the bleep do we know" last night. He watched about 10 minutes of it and said "I don't get it." What got me frustrated was the fact that I couldn't explain it to him. I try but find myself getting tounge tied in the process. Umm...I should have known better than to have him think outside the box. I was a bit disappointed at the time but shrugged it off and put myself in the allowing state of happiness again. He thought I was pissed but I've learned that you really can't change someone's point of view. You can only change yourself. As long as he doesn't try changing my view...I'm fine. Perhaps I should envision him wanting to know more about it, wanting to learn something different, talking openly about it with me?

It's worth a try I suppose but for now, I think I'll envision a nice warm vacation for us. The weather has become a freezing -15 degrees in Toronto and there's nothing more tempting than to ditch this fridgid weather for a warmer, blistfull Cuba right about now.

Namaste!

Me? An Author?

The birthday's are over...I think.

We celebrated my mother-in-laws 72nd birthday over the past weekend. It was nice but I'm really starting to have a beef with the sister-in-law and her angry, biting son. There have been several occasions now where Nicky has pushed, shoved, bitten and/or hit one of my kids and she does nothing to control his behaviour.

On a more positive note, I'm thinking of writing a book. I'm sure the materials I've gathered thus far are good but have to composite a beginning and an end which could be done quite easily if it were not for the lack of time. The book will consist of selected diary entries, episodes of depression and my story of survival. I figure if I'm going to write about something, it should be something I know about....and I certainly know about depression.
This could work...right? I mean, I know I'm not the most gifted writer but I'll never know if I don't try.

I've gotta run. I've been off work for a couple of days with the kids so I have alot to catch up on.
Oh, and I've finally booked my seat for the Abraham-Hicks lecture on the 17th of March. Can't wait!

Goodbye my trusty Honda friend.

Goodbye Honda, my dear loyal, faithful car. You never left me stranded. You've always been my trusty companion for years now and I've always thanked you for getting me around safely. Even though Pete never liked you, thought you were uncomfortable and small, thought you were never good enough for me, I've always treated you like my special friend.

I'm sure you'll be in good hands with John's son who is planning to spiff you up and make you look just wonderful, inside and out. You belong with him and I'm sure he'll love you as I have. I'm glad I was there to give you an new engine before the old one gave way. You'll always be in my memory as my most favourite car.

Yes. I've sold my Honda Civic after manifesting a Cadillac. Yes, you heard me....manifesting....and yeah, it's SOLD. All I did was ask the Universe for a new car (preferrably a Mini Cooper) felt the "good" feelings, pictured it already in the now and about a month later, Peter told me that his cousin practically gave him the Caddy which is probably worth $6,000 in exchange for some work to be done on his car. So, I didn't get my Mini but I was certainly smiling when Pete handed me the keys to the Caddy. POWER EVERYTHING BABY! Power locks, power seats, damn...there are more toys in there that I know what to do with! lol

To top it off, Pete gave me 90% of the money from selling the Honda (something I'd never expected him to do).
Money has been coming in quite frequently and easily which makes me feel good which in turn makes me feel great. Turning your life around isn't as tough as I thought it was going to be. It's really quite simple once you get the hang of it.

Nothing is more important than to feel good.

Happy Birthdays!

January has always been the busiest month for me. It seems like the birthday's never end.

After celebrating Peter's 35th on Dec 29th, we celebrated my father-in-laws 65th, my father's 80th and the twins' 2nd. My mother-in-laws is sometime next week...I believe on the 22nd. I'd better check with Pete on that one.

Well, I'm really at a loss for words today but I'd just like to add that the look on my dad's face was priceless after Angie (my oldest sister) had read the card we all signed for him. He was actually in tears and I have to say, that moment was the very first time I had ever seen my dad cry. Happy tears of course.

On the drive over there I couldn't help but to think of how my dad had always considered himself a very un-lucky man. He had to work hard for everything he had ever wanted. He never won anything or had anything handed down to him and he told us many times that he would never spend his money on lottery tickets because he knew he'd never win.
Well, as I sat there mid-lunch I couldn't help but notice how wonderfully blessed my dad is to have such a wonderful family. His kids are all happy and healthy. None of us had ever turned to drugs or alcohol or been arrested. We all turned out pretty much ok. He's of course happy and healthy himself so that makes him one of the wealthiest 80yr olds I know.

My re-birth...

I've been reborn.

That's how I've been looking at my future. My mindset is in the NOW and I'm focusing on what I already have and no longer dwell upon what I lack.
Did you know that gratitude is the closest emotion to love?

I couldn't have gotten here without help from my mentors, Author Wallace D. Wattles, Bob Proctor, Mike Dooley, Jack Canfield, John DeMartini, Joe Vitale, James Ray, John Assaraf and the many others who have given me a glimpse inside my soul by watching The Secret and reading about the Law of Attraction. Not to mention Rhonda Byrne who brought it into fruition. Through them I've found Jerry and Esther Hicks and of course Abraham (their spirit guide) who have all shown me that there's nothing more important than to feel good.

Looking back at my previous entries along the years when I was literally floating through life, basically wondering why I was here and what I was meant to do, I've come to appreciate and value all the information I've learned from the wise people I've met. I've now come to realize that I myself have chosen to be here in this physical body to enjoy life...to be happy. I've come to learn that everything that happens to me is attracted to me by my very thoughts. Do you know how powerful that makes me feel? I'm no longer doubting my existance but embrace every day with a new found sense that it is I who can control my happiness by virtue of what I think and feel. After all...it's all just Quantum Physics. :)

Strange. Upon reading all the information about the Law of Attraction, it felt as though I had already known it. I just had to be reminded and it was in my darkest moments that it was shown to me. Like pieces of a puzzle it unraveled itself before my very eyes.

You don't have to wait until you've hit rock bottom to have it shown to you. It's all around us. The Law of Attraction works everyday and yet there are millions who are not aware of it. Can you just imagine what this world would like if everybody practiced the LOA? How beautiful and incredibly wonderful life would be for everyone.

Smile more. Feel good. Free yourself. Live happy, healthy, prosperous lives. Joy is what we're here to experience. Utter joy.

In Gratitude,
Trin
