Seeing things...

I got to thinking how funny it is that, when we really fall in love with the idea of something... or alternatively deathly fear something... we start to see it... everywhere...

I've been thinking how "keen" it would be to win the lottery lately... not the whole enchilada... just... ya know, 10 K... enough to solve a few problems and enough to have a little fun with... not enough to get in any trouble, insert wink here. So consequently, I have seen unending things about winning the lottery... lottery ads, $10,000, 10000 things.... all over the place. Remember though this works both ways... if I had a pregnancy scare... I'd see pregnant women, "Baby on Board" signs, and strollers... EVERYWHERE! I have a friend who wants a new car... and he sees the SPECIFIC one, everywhere he goes, as if it's taunting him...

Ever hear yourself or anyone else for that matter say, "I had a feeling something bad was going to happen!" And then, like magic, something bad happened?? Quantum Physics Baby. Quantum Physics.

Someone once compared me to the abominable snowman in Bugs Bunny... I have a lot of Love and Energy, and sometimes, I can be accused of being a bit what I call "...luv 'em, n' kiss 'em, n' squeeze 'em, and call 'em George!" And in that same line of thinking... if you crave something so desperately that you, well, squeeze it to death... you'll never get it... So thinking of things, good or bad, brings something of that nature into your reality... and then adamantly going after something, chasing it as if you'll never actually attain it, will push it further from you, like "flipped" magnets.... hmmm....

A good example of this... I once saw a very handsome man at HomeDepot. He chatted with me and gave me pointers on buying an electric drill. Definitely cute, but no phone numbers exchanged. I was disappointed but, a few weeks later, I thought of him... casually, and there he was... in front of me in line at Tuttini's Bakery, and then again, I went to see some romantic comedy, and decided, walking out of the theatre, to take a stroll down State, and there he was, just as I thought of him, walking out of a restaurant alone. We did in fact exchange numbers, and a kiss, and then went on a few dates... and he promptly moved to Seattle... (enter my brilliant luck, here!) But none the less... casual thoughts... equal... POOF! hm.

So I guess the lesson here.... whether you pick up the Quantum Physics note or not...  think of life like sitting in a Mexican Restaurant... you order a burrito, relax and wait... never worrying whether it will come out of the kitchen, or if they will bring Spaghetti instead, or maybe if it will NEVER come... you know it will, you ordered... why in hell wouldn't it come... so exactly that... Order life... life qualities, decisions, moments, people, things...

So cheers... Here's to POOFING!
