Think about It

A few mornings ago I woke up and sat at the table to enjoy some tea. I may have been reading The Sun, or writing something down, and I looked up and noticed the vase of once fresh sunflowers in front of me was not looking so hot. I gave them a moments thought. "I should get some fresh flowers," I said to myself before resuming what I was reading or writing. When I got up, I threw the dying flowers away and rinsed the vase.

Some hours later, my boyfriend unexpectedly walks in the door with a huge bouquet of flowers! Among them, two huge sunflowers, bigger than the previous. No, it wasn't a special occasion, and yes, I do have a sweet boyfriend (see post "Try to Keep it Fabulous"), but it's not like I get flowers everyday or anything. What interests me here is that within hours of thinking about what I wanted, it manifested itself. And now the vase of flowers in front of me is fuller, and brighter than the last.

Now, should I look at my bank account and think, "I need some more money"? Should I look at my car and think, "I need a new BMW"? Will these things then magically appear in my life, just like the flowers?

I'll keep you posted. (I'm feeling good about this one!).

I have to say, this summer is off to a pretty amazing start. On Saturday, I had a chocolate covered fortune cookie tell me "Success and happiness will come your way." Um, isn't this what this whole blog is all about? Isn't this exactly what I have been focusing on these last few weeks?

And I don't think I could of had a better morning today. I spent it in my pj's working on a story for my creative writing class, drinking coffee and intermittently dancing to Phoenix.

Now I'm getting ready to go for a run on the beach, before I finish the story. Life is good.
