I have finally admitted to myself how I would like to see / feel about myself (I think up til now I thought it was too vain)

.... and it feels good.

Ooh, ooh, and someone from this forum left a nice comment on my blog.

Yesterday my daughter came over as she usually does, and I told her about my amazing day at the post office where I received an unexpected $1000.00 in checks. And one of them was from someone that felt led to send me $100.00 "just because" along with a beautiful card of appreciation, which allows me to buy an outfit for my youngest son for his semi-formal. My daughter was a blown away as I was.

My husband went out to eat later that day where my oldest son who is clean and sober 4 months as of Saturday works as a cook,(he made us an amazing lunch) and my son seemed a little down. So I handed him a $20.00 bill, and he lit right up. It made me very happy to see and feel his joy.

I have been mentioning SOGR to my daughter since I started, using phrases like "The Universe always works WITH you", "that just means that there's something better for you", "don't allow yourself to get disappointed because seeming failures are successes", etc. She has always been interested, but now that she's seeing the money start to come in, she's VERY interested, so I handed her my SOGR CD. It would be great fun to study together with her should she decide to persue this path. I'm very happy that she's so open to it.

Hi

I have a new client.
Today she emailed and said that her Mum was in bed with a bad back, and she took her computer in to her room and showed her what she was studying.

Her Mum took an interest and asked her to give her a copy of SOGRIPE.

Another interested party!!!!

Now that makes me Happy.

I'm here for my fix as well as to share.
Wow ME, I'm so happy that you found a place to live so synchronistically.
Croz, cool how that guy just "happened to call. I LOVE when stuff like that happens.

Today, I started with my morning meditation, and did an absentee healing ceremony for 2 friends-one who has bipolar disorder, and another who was in tremdous physical pain due to a fused spine, and who has spent an agonizing week dealing with the pain pending surgery. For those that don't know what an absentee healing ceremony is, you do the healing just as if the person was there,(I do laying on of the hands using crystals, like Native Americans do) all the while visualizing them. You can do this when someone is far away, and you have no physical means to get there to do the healing in person. My husband often helps me with this simply by visualizing the person in question and "feeling health" for them. You and the person that needs a healing set up a time together, and all they have to do is lay down, relax and close their eyes while we do the healing on the other end. The experience is quite powerful for both healer and recipient. It's kind of like praying for someone, but perhaps in a more directed way.

I then went to the local Western Union to pick up a money transfer for a $400.00 order from AUSTRALIA. It was my first order from there.

We then went to the Modeler's Club flying field for the first time this year. I flew my Duraplane for the first time unassisted, crash landed, but no major damage to the plane. Dino had a successful flight too. The guys were really happy to see how good he looked, and they all shook his hand and gave him hugs. And we met two old friends that we hadn't seen in over a year quite by "chance" because the local Cubscout chapter was checking out the model planes. When they asked me how the pottery business was going, it felt so good to say and really FEEL it when I said "AWESOME!

Then we went food shopping, and we got another one of those neat canvas bags just for buying organic food. I looked at my cart when I got to the register and felt deeply grateful for having the means to pay for all the wonderful high quality food we bought.

Went home, and found a beautiful happy message on my answering machine from my friend that was in terrible physical pain saying how good she felt, thanking us profusely for taking the time to care and send her healing energy. That message MADE MY DAY!! It made my day because I love it when I can spread joy and help people feel as good as I do.

More later, I'm sure.

((((HUGS))),

More stories...where do I begin?

How about this:

The other night at the blues jam, I improvised a song of gratitude for my musical community!
Now THAT'S mental progress, and THAT makes me happy!

....and someone in the audience - knowing I have to move the end of the month - offered me a place to live! (And that was BEFORE I sang the gratitude song!) THAT'S THE LAW OF ATTRACTION working and that makes me happy!

I don't know what my realiztion will mean to others, and you know that I have previously posted that I am happy being me. My realization also includes not only that I am happy being me, but I now know undeniably that I am the foundation that my future is built upon. I am the rock that I stand, and this makes me happy.

This is fun!

I am sure there must be lots more stories or just plain happy people out there.

Make this the good news channel where we can all come for our daily fix of HAPPINESS.

Here is my latest story.

I was talking to Josh about a territory that we were going to licence for his new business, and mentioned a guy I knew in that area but had not seen for two years. I said that I would dig out his number and ring him.

No sooner had I finished speaking, he was on the phone about a totally unrelated matter.

He is coming in on Monday to talk about this deal.

Now that makes me HAPPY

I am happy to be Alive and Healthy Tonight.

I completed Alexandrias course about 3weeks ago and since then I've been happy for no reason what so ever. How cool is that?

Seriously whats making me happy also is that I've at long last developed the balls to start out in my new business which is taking people on wild adventures in Africa. Getting the website up and will keep you posted!

Wow, more Happy News everybody:

This morning I went to work on a sculpture that I was remoistening with wet towels and found that it had collapsed and was in pieces. Much to my own surprise, I didn't even get upset, I was able to instead see it as an opportunity for betterment. I reassembled it, and in fact it is much stronger and straighter than before.

Later in the afternoon, the doorbell rang. My ex brother-in-law that came for lunch Sunday sent me a gorgeous thank-you bouquet of flowers. What a surprise that was.

Then my daughter showed up with a huge bag of clothes that a friend was giving away. I had just cleaned out my closet the week before, and forgiven the consignment shop that never paid me last year after doing the PG course. And the clothes and shoes are top of the line: real silk, cottons, and shoes that are just my size, made in Italy and never been worn.

Yes, the Universe is truly abundant.
I can't wait to see what flies through the door next.

Peace and Light,
Julia

Thank you "Crafty Croz" , that's very validating indeed.
BTW, I just got my first order from Australia the other day.

Singing.

Hi Ancient Soul.

I love your posts they are always full of energy and good cheer.

I have a lovely story to relate today.

I have a new client and as I was having our introductory meeting I had a flashback to a previous client from two or three years ago. Here was an almost identical situation being relayed to me.

Crafty Croz thought,"I wonder if I can get the previous client to email and talk to the new one?"

She has, they have started communication and I think that it will be really beneficial to them both.

Now that makes me HAPPY!

I just got a nice little order for four 8 inch floor tiles, which are being installed in an old villa in France. And the order came from a neighbor who prior to my doing the forgiveness work in the PG course, I despised. (Now I like her-LOL!) And the cool part is that the tiles will be a lot of fun to do.

Cheers,
Julia

Thanks! Boy, but I saw the most delicous looking picures of cheesecakes on the internet a while back...better start manifesting me some now! Heehee

What makes me happy these last few days are, a friend gave me a gift card for writing a recommendation for him to be accepted in an educational program, a friend has come into my life, who is sober for the first time in years. She also bought our two recliners to help us out and to help another friend of hers, who is returning here to MN.

Then, today, my husband and I went shopping with my gift card. We got everything on our list, and we only had to pay 40 cents of our own. Also, Don did the laundry, cleaned up the kitchen and fixed me a super cheeseburger for dinner. (I'm wondering where all his energy came from: this is normally not my guy.) As I type this, I'm enjoying the last fruits of his love and labor. This cheeseburger is yummy.

Thank you Julia for sharing your life so openly and beautifully. I am happy that I have had two days off and three more to go to work on a new income stream and to spend extra time with my 14 year old son, listening to him and his buddies laugh and cackle. I am happy just to be tonight, and read all the wonderful post and take it all in with a great breath of gratitude.

Wow. There is so much that makes me happy. Some of what has happened recently starts with my birthday.

My daughter and I were chatting on the phone when she asked to speak to our new room mate. She asked him to make sure my birthday would be very special since Don would be working and she lives in a state over 2,000 miles from us.

He sure did meet his promise! He cleaned up my whole kitchen, waited on me hand and foot, made me a special dinner and kept me company-even watching shows I like. This is something considering he's only 27-hanging out with an ole lady like me.

Travis has had a rough life. People have kicked him out at his every turn. We took him in and he has made a 360 degree turn in his life. Not only has he become a home body, instead of the night life, but he is working for our neighbor, who he and him hit it off right from their first meeting.

Now that I think about it, this is what really makes me happy-that we, in some way, have helped this young man to stop being homeless and having a better life to look forward to with a career and home of his own.

To end this up, one other thing that really made me happy my special day was, we had gone somewhere to pick up food, for free. Now mind you, this was at 12:30 P.M. There were many people there before us, but no one had picked it up nor a Chocolate Torte. There, on a baker's rack, was a French Silk Pie. (Some people like cake, I'm a pie gal myself.) I was filled with terrific joy, and when I got home, I gingerly laid it on my last shelf in my fridge. Each time I opened my fridge, I saw it just sitting there waiting for me. Even though I was immensely tempted, I waited, with great anticipation, to eat it on my birthday, which was three days from pick up.

Oh but that pie sure tasted good.
