Opportunity Knocks!

Hi,

I just came back from a week's vacation. Nine days without thinking about work, it was nice. I spent the whole time cleaning, when I remembered and just living in the "now" and being happy.

I have been very blessed so far in 2009. Money is tight (but that is just a negative memory, and I am giving it power by speaking about it), but I decided to act like I am made of money. After all the universe is space which can be developed into anything.

I worked hard over Christmas, and in appreciation my boss gave me four prime Ottawa Senator tickets. We were in the 100s, which to say the very least was close enough to hear the players grunting. I have been to NHL games before, but have never sat as close as I did. Plus the Senators being the underdog, ended up beating the Washington Capitals 3 -2, so it was a great game.

I am pretty blessed and sometimes it takes a few months, or so for me to realize how lucky I am. Today I was talking to my landlord, and it made me realize how "magical" my life has been lately.

Since moving to this northern community, the windows in our apartment leak, and all kinds of cold air come in. On really cold days, you can't sleep at night because the wind is howling. While we were away, they came and took out the old windows and gave us new, sealed ones. Not only did we not have to deal with the inconvenience, but when we got back our apartment was nice and warm.

Also, while I was talking to him, he mentioned that him and his wife had resigned and the company is looking for new landlords...strange that he mentioned this. What was even stranger is normally he doesn't even talk to me.

Now I am not sure if he mentioned the job because I should apply...as sometimes it's hard to understand whether you should act on things or not...as it would be a lot less money than a currently make. But on the plus side, it would give me lots of time to research and write, which is what I truly want to do in life.

So my point is this, every day you are presented with opportunities, it's up to you to clean and decide when you are going to act on these events. If you are afraid to act, how are you expecting your life to change.

Also I wanted to thank everyone for their comments as always, but if your comment is just spam, it will not get posted.

Peace begins with me!
