Have YOU made YOUR vision board yet?

It's been a while since my last post since things are falling into place all around me...

So seriously, what are you waiting for?? All you are losing is valuable time!

I've been telling everyone and anyone that will listen to me, about "the Secret", and how it has noticeably had an affect on my life, but as I lay here with the hot sun beaming on my back,with classic Dalida echoing out of the (**newly renovated**) kitchen door, I KNOW that my dreams are coming true! I can feel them and see them. I am living several of them already, at this very moment!

Even as I write, it's as though the universe is agreeing with me, confirming 'tis true.
The perfectly light summer breeze suddenly picks up, as if in accordance with my thoughts, and as I look up, there is my Freddy, smiling back at me. Life is truly amazing, and I am so grateful.

I am so grateful. That's it. That's the secret in a nutshell.
All it is is the "The Law of Attraction."
Positive energy. Warm, grateful thoughts.
The laws are already working and proven - otherwise it wouldn't be a "law" (doh!), i.e. the Law of Gravity.

There is that warm breeze again. Everything around me is signing to the energy, like even the birds know it's true. ... is this real, or have I just become a Disney cartoon??

So I embrace it, and feel in love all over again - not just with my husband or my wonderful home and yard, but with life in general and the path I am heading down. These feelings evoke more positive energy, and more positive energy, and so on and so on.

Nobody made a rule that says you cannot have everything you want in life, so GO GET IT!
Why not believe in yourself, and in what you want? Feel**key word** like it is waiting for you, and just you wait and see what happens...

The journey that lay ahead of us, The Forfaits, are all dreams come true. Both of ours - as partners and as individuals, goals are being achieved. From something as simple as bringing our new puppy home in a few days; to something we dreamt about 5 years ago during those steamy, almost poverty stricken, hazy days in Mexico! I remember specifically lying together one morning and longing for a Sunday far from then, in a plush, cozy bed, in a place where all we had to do was enjoy the day. (Our bed in Mexico only had 1 flat sheet and 2 pillows. We had geckos on the walls and the alternative sleeping arrangements were either the hammock or the beach. we earned $2500 Mexican pesos per month per person - about $500 CDN total.)

We finally woke in that dream bed this very morning. After 4 years of married life, sleeping on a mattress on the floor. It took me a minute to understand it was real.

Mexico was one thing, but believe you me, we know our fair share of heartache and life-upside-down-heavy-duty-out-of-control...what would you call them...episodes? Issues? Challenges. Speaking only of since we've have been a couple, you name it, we've been there done that. (With the exception of children.)

Somehow, miraculously, and coincidentally(?) since we started our Quixtar Independent e-commerce business, and then after watching the Secret a few months later, we have moved on from all of those "challenges". The sorrow, uncertainty, near-bankruptcy, marital issues, as well as the career issues are all just things that are quickly becoming distant memories...What doesn't break you, right? And we have never been stronger.

Which reminds me - getting back to the vision board.
There are things on each of our boards that a few months ago were just magazine cut-outs and miss-matched words. Now they exist. Even the ortho work on my teeth is about to begin...something I have been desperately wishing for since the age of 7.

Whatever had been obstacles in our way, making the possible seem impossible, have since fallen away. The puzzle is filling in and the missing pieces are floating clearly within reach.

Today, with only 2 days left in my 2 current jobs (!! yes, two), and only a few more away from my step up in my career with TPS, I feel as though I am back in control of my world. And what a happy world it is :)

Close your eyes, take a deep breath and smile. Think of something that you are thankful for.
Do it again, shut your eyes tighter and imagine something. Anything that makes your smile grow bigger.
Now open your eyes, and make it happen!

It's all I did and I promise, it's working.
See my links for the official website, and stay tuned for more dreams come true.
You will see me on Oprah someday sooner than you think ;)

Peace ~ Love ~ Gratitude
