Notes from the Universe

Invariably
when big dreams come true, and I mean BIG,
there is a total metamorphosis of one's life.
Thoughts change. Words change. Decisions are made differently. Gratitude is tossed about like rice at a wedding. Priorities are rearranged and optimism soars. Yeah, they're almost annoying.

You could have guessed all that, huh?

Would you have guessed that these changes, invariably, come about before, not after, the dreams manifestation?

Invariably means always.

Notes from the Universe

Thinking big but acting small,
is the same as thinking small.

Shiver me timbers.

Reading this and nodding in wholehearted agreement, but not doing a little acting "as if your dreams have come true" in the days that follow, is the same as not reading this.

Notes from the Universe

You're simply the best.

You blow my mind. We're all in total awe. How you hold together under pressure. How you face up to your challenges. And your rebound ability totally rocks. You're driven, persistent and strong. Playful, silly, fun. Compassionate, sympathetic, understanding. You're just plain unstoppable. And you always have time for others. What a package.

So-o-o-o-o...

How 'bout cutting yourself some 
slack every now and then?

Notes from the Universe

Do you want to know
what's really beautiful? Confidence.

Do you want to know what's really 
powerful? Persistence.

Do you want to know what's really sexy? (Please, I know about sexy.) Not needing to be needed.

And if still "they" don't notice your good looks, your strength, and your sashay... could you feel more sorry for them?

Who needs Botox?

Notes from the Universe

Do you think

it would be as much fun if you could trade some of the happiest days of your life, for not having to experience some of the saddest?

Do you think it would be as much fun if you could guarantee that some of your dreams would come true, by forgoing others?

How about if only your "good" thoughts became things... or would you still want it all?

Ha, I knew it! You take after me.

Notes from the Universe

Now be honest

and think of all your dreams that have already come true.

A lot, right? Tons. Actually, you're a bit of a legend here already.

Now, do you remember how before all the big ones came true, when you were pushing, and reaching, and striving; hoping, wishing, and praying, you'd think to yourself, "then I'll be freer. Then I'll be more confident. Then I'll know all things are possible! How happy I will be!!!"

Hey, what happened?

Notes from the Universe

You do know, of course,
why you're here - don't you?

Because you couldn't resist the challenge.

Nothing in all creation, not in any sphere of the Universe, compares to being born into time and space without any recollection of your past; having to find your own way when lost, your own courage when frightened, and the infinite powers at your disposal when challenged; left to the elements to rediscover your supremacy over them; driven by your passions so that you might rise above your humble, naked beginnings, and ultimately see through the illusions that had trapped you. To find yourself, once again, high upon the throne of thy Kingdom come from whence it all began.

Either that, or you were dared.
